Dirty South by Ace Atkins

Learning about my Feelings is a resource that focuses on 10 core feelings often expressed by children. This book introduces the feelings in three ways.

1. Visually by showing the emotion.
2. Explaining by providing an easy to follow meaning of the emotion.
3. A Demonstration is given in a scenario form.

Focus on Feeling(c) Learning about my Feelings is written to be used in various settings such as the classroom, therapy room or home setting. This book gives the educator flexibility to teach the feelings utilizing creative methods.

This book gives the young reader a sense of independence and achievement of gaining an understanding of the feelings when reading alone.

The focus on feelings set is amazing I love that I am able to use the book to talk about what feelings are and then go back with the cards and have my clients explain to me their examples of what that feeling is for them. When working with children who are on the autism spectrum concrete and direct examples are best and help them learn, this set has really helped them become aware of their own feelings and feelings of others.

I love the author's diverse set of products. It is especially helpful that scenarios are used to demonstrate feelings, which helps kids learn how to appropriately identify and express their feelings. This therapeutic social/emotional learning tool is a great resource for therapists, social workers, and teachers

Ace Atkins is the author of the Quinn Colson novels The Ranger, The Lost Ones, and The Broken Places. Atkins was also chosen by the Robert B. Parker estate to continue the highly popular Spenser novels. A former journalist who cut his teeth as a crime reporter in the newsroom of The Tampa Tribune, he published his first novel, Crossroad Blues, at 27 and became a full-time novelist at 30. While at the Tribune, Ace earned a Pulitzer Prize nomination for a feature series based on his investigation into a forgotten murder of the 1950s. The story became the core of his critically acclaimed novel, White Shadow, which earned raves from noted authors and critics. In his next novels, Wicked City, Devil's Garden, and Infamous, blended first-hand interviews and original research into police and court records with tightly woven plots and incisive characters. The historical novels told great American stories by weaving fact and fiction into a colorful, seamless tapestry.
The Ranger represents a return to Ace's first love: hero-driven series fiction. Quinn Colson is a real hero--a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan--who returns home to north Mississippi to fight corruption on his home turf. Ace lives on a historic farm outside Oxford, Mississippi with his family.
