The Top 10 self-help books

by Susan Quilliam
continued from page 2
The Break-up Survival Kit
There are lots of 'how to get over a failed relationship' books on the market, many of which take the philosophical approach. To be honest, being told that it's 'all for the best' and 'live and let live' never really cut it with me. The Break-up Survival Kit is a refreshing book, tackling upfront issues such as emotional desperation and revenge, as well as the more traditional topics of when to start dating again and how to handle rebound relationships. It's full of lists, tips and quizzes and is just what you need when you're in the middle of that sanity bypass that usually accompanies a break-up.

How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk
This book was published decades ago but is still the best-ever book written for parents. It helps you understand what it's like to be a child and why they never seem to listen to you. And then, it tells you how to communicate with kids so they 'can and do' listen. It's energetically written, it really makes you think about your own situation and your children, and the cartoons are fabulous. It should be required reading for all parents, including those who've just found out they are pregnant.
How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk, by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish (Piccadilly Press, £8.99)
