Vau!
‘Once upon there was a boy who became a dog. His name was Pál Szilas. What kind of a dog did he change into? Hungarian pointer. Why did he change into a dog? That’s it! He didn’t know either. Pali Szilas mostly was a quiet boy. ‘He is a hard-working, conscientious student, a well-behaved child’ – as his form-teacher described him.
Children, kindergartens, schools
‘What does my child need to be successful? What private lessons should I provide for my child if I can and from what age? When and how will I do good for him or her (when shall I help his or her future)? If I chase or spare my child? How will I know whether I choose well? What are the characteristics of a good kindergarten, school? What should I add to what kindergartens and schools demand from my child?’ Vekerdy Tamás, the well-known and popular psychologist writes about these problems in his book.

Positive discipline
‘Jane Nelsen’s book about positive discipline is quite strange for those who get used to Hungarian child-rearing literature. The author reveals that traditional punishment is based on humiliating children and in return mentally healthy children respond to it with opposition or giving up their personality.’ The new volume can be already lended in our library.
