each day. _

UNCLE RUSS
Especially for parents who are serious about setting their children
up for a fantastic future!
From 'Uncle Russ' the greatest-ever uncle!
_Melbourne, Australia._
DEAR PARENT _(and any badly besotted aunts, uncles, or grandparents
who might be reading this)_, If you are a parent who wants to have the
smoothest possible character-development journey for your child, then
this may be the most important letter you've ever read!
_BIG CALL?_
Maybe but follow me while I share where I'm coming from
_"UNCLE RUSS, TELL US A STORY!"_
Coming from my nieces and nephews, this greeting never failed to make
me melt! And I must admit I loved the stories as much as they did!
_(Does anyone ever outgrow listening to a thrilling story? If you say
'yes' I don't believe it!)_
They are "golden memories" having a youngster pressing in close to
you with wide, excited eyes, holding their breath in anticipation as
you dramatise the words off the page this would definitely have to
rank among the best of them! _THERE'S NOTHING LIKE CHUCKLING AND
CRYING TOGETHER OVER A GOOD STORY__._
_Hi, I'm Russell Alsop, and maybe you can relate to my story _
I got to remembering how I grew up with a Mom who would share family
stories around the dinner table most evenings - tales of Grandad
working as a bullock driver in the Australian bush the interesting
visitors who came to their farm the colourful neighbours in the
district how she and Dad met!
I HAD A GOOD GRIP OF WHO I WAS AND WHERE I CAME FROM.
_But the stories didn't stop there._
At bed time, Mom would read me gripping true-to-life stories of
people and their every day adventures.
THE STORY BOOKS DIDN'T HAVE MANY PICTURES BUT I COULD SEE IT ALL
HAPPENING AS THE IMAGES CASCADED THROUGH MY MIND - I could _smell_ the
bush, _feel_ the wind on my face, _taste_ the camp food, and _imagine_
each of the characters in the story.
"My wife was the same she too could remember the stories read to her
over 50 years ago! It continues to amaze us just how powerful good
stories are!"
There was always a vital message that went straight to my heart (even
though I didn't notice it at the time) - an ideal that I would want to
have, or the character of a person that I would want to be like!
But I fear for kids today!
Look at some of the stats
* by the time a child in the US finishes elementary school they have
witnessed 8,000 murders on TV
* when they reach 18 years more than 200,000 acts of violence have
entered their brain space
* only 3 minutes of meaningful conversation per day with most
parents, compared with
* an average of 4 hours per day in front of the TV
Scary isn't it? Now I'm not into bashing TV - there's a lot of
worthwhile stuff on TV! But it's got its downside too. _Look at some
of these harmful effects of TV watching_
* PRODUCES A HYPNOTIC EFFECT, BYPASSING FRONTAL LOBE FILTERING
_(affects your moral conscience)_
* _Often stimulates sexual desires_
* INCREASES AGGRESSIVE AND VIOLENT TENDENCIES
* _Unbalances the brain, favouring depression through both its
content and hypnotic_ _effect_
* CAN BE A SIGNIFICANT STRESSOR
* _Reduces interest in reading and_ _learning_
* WEAKENS BRAIN POWER
* _Encourages poor lifestyle_ _choices_
* ENCOURAGES OBESITY
* _Increases day-dreaming_
* WEAKENS CREATIVITY
* _May reduce our powers of_ _discrimination_
* TRAINS IN NON-REACTION
* _Addictive_
* REDUCES TIME AVAILABLE FOR PRODUCTIVE ACHIEVEMENT
* _Steals time from family_ _interaction_
* ADVERSELY AFFECTS SPIRITUAL PURSUITS
SO YOU'VE GOT TO ASK THE QUESTION
What Input is Actually Forming Our Children's Characters These Days?
Not only that, but with so much advertising and information
avalanching into a child's mind from various media sources, their own
creativity and imagination is at risk of being seriously impaired.
And then there are negative effects associated with excessive time
spent playing computer games, which can become addictive and limit
development of interpersonal skills.
All this stuff is pretty well known, and gets talked about a lot. But
the question remains:
HOW DO WE TAKE STEPS TO COUNTERACT 'NEGATIVE INPUT' AND FIND A
HEALTHY BALANCE?
BACK TO MY STORY
I didn't realise it at the time, but the stories Mom used to read to
me from as early as I can remember were forming the characteristics of
what's called 'me' today! Sure, Mom carefully picked quality stories
with punch but they also had a powerful message.
Messages like
* _being passionate_
* STANDING FOR SOMETHING WORTHWHILE
* _being industrious_
* HAVING CONFIDENCE WHEN FACING NEW CHALLENGES
* _being kind to_ _others_
* ALWAYS STICKING TO YOUR WORD
* _being comfortable talking with_ _grown-ups_
* RESPECTING MOM AND DAD
* _being creative_
* LEARNING THE VALUE OF A FRIEND
* _becoming independent_
* OVERCOMING SHYNESS
* _keeping promises_
* MAKING GOOD DECISIONS
* _finishing what you_ _start_
* RESPECTING AUTHORITY
* _the value of_ _family_
* OVERLOOKING OTHER'S FAULTS
* _being truthful_
* LOOKING FOR THE GOOD IN OTHERS
* _having confidence in what you can_ _do_
* HOW TO BEHAVE WHEN OUT VISITING
* _happy being 'ME'_
_ AND MUCH, MUCH MORE!_
_Yes _ without even realising it, I had INTERNALISED those stories
Mom read to me all those years ago. The PRINCIPLES in the stories gave
me an INTERNAL COMPASS that helped me SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATE the
challenges life has thrown my way!
_I'LL NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A GOOD STORY!_
It was only later I fully realised the consequences these
word-painted-pictures could have on the "highly absorbent minds" of
little kids setting them up with the unlimited potential to become all
they can be.
AND THAT'S WHERE THIS PASSIONATE HUNT FOR HEART-TOUCHING,
CHARACTER-MOULDING, ENTERTAINING, TRUE-TO-LIFE STORIES BEGAN!
All the classic fairy tales are great BUT WHERE DO YOU FIND 'NOW'
STORIES THAT KIDS CAN IMAGINE THEMSELVES IN?
There are some fabulous authors around - but I found it difficult to
locate stories with those 'WHOLESOME VALUES' Mom used to read to me
all those years ago!
Believe it or not my search arrived at a surprisingly young mother of
five, who manages a cleaning business and who writes for a hobby!
I was astounded with the insight this young mom had. But maybe I
shouldn't have been so surprised, seeing she is immersed in bringing
up five closely-spaced children!
Together we started working on this project making available the sort
of stories that would put an INTERNAL COMPASS in children that would
set them up to SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATE the challenges that life throws
at them.
The results astounded and thrilled us both, so now we are delighted
to present to you these truly original, character-enhancing stories,
that I know your kids are going to love!
Here's a quick glimpse of some of the adventures contained in these
stories for you and your family
* TIME OUT TOMMY (Making Good Decisions) - Tommy described this as a
'really bad day' but without him knowing it, this day was going to
make all future days a whole lot better!
*
CARLY'S WILD RIDE (Unselfishness) - Carly never made it to the park
to show off her new bike but she was surprised to discover something
even more exciting along the way!
*
TAKING SIDES (Peer Pressure/Friendship) - New in the school, Hayley
is under pressure. What's it going to be the most popular kid on the
school ground, or loyal to her best friend? How does she handle it?
*
JUST KICKING ROCKS (Bullying) - Freddy finally opens up to his
favourite teacher at school and is relieved to find that it's not his
fault that the bigger boys always pick on him. Now he knows there is
someone who will stand up for him.
*
THE NIGHT MEETING (Trustworthy) - His stomach twitched at even the
slightest night sound or cracking twig. Caleb regretted agreeing to
deliver the mysterious envelope but he hurried on knowing that Farmer
Ted was relying on him. It wasn't till the next day that he discovered
just why this envelope was so important!
*
GIMME THAT BACK! (Getting along with brothers and sisters) - If
Eating Big Sister's crayons wasn't bad enough, tearing up her
favourite poster was the last straw. Would Baby Ella ever be welcome
back in Dena's room again?
And that's just a tiny taste of these awesome True-To-Life stories
offered to you in Kid's Life-Skill Stories collection.
BY INVESTING JUST A FEW MINUTES EACH NIGHT YOU'LL HAVE THE
SATISFACTION OF GIVING YOUR CHILD SOME OF THE MOST POWERFUL
