Too often we pay attention to negative behavior and
ignore the positive. We are rarely taught the benefit of positive
reinforcement, and instead focus on the negative and expect automatic change.
This children’s book is based on a true story as
experienced by Dr. Amen himself. One day while watching a penguin named Fat
Freddy take part in a stunt show at a local amusement park, he is astonished to
see the penguin perform so well. Frustrated by his own son’s behavior, Dr. Amen
decides to talk with the trainer after the show to find out how she got the
penguin to follow all of her directions. Through clever rhyme and storytelling,
the trainer shares with Dr. Amen the power of positive reinforcement.
Though designed with elementary school students in
mind, this story has taught people of all ages a valuable, life-changing
lesson.
