OMG!!! The Big Bad Wolf Can't Find The Three Little Pigs

Beschreibung

While this book appears to be a children's book, the dilemma it poses is true for everyone throughout their lives. I hope that it will challenge readers: whether they are a child, parent or grandparent, to reflect on how this story applies to their lives. Moreover, if parent or grandparent is sharing the story with a child, I hope they would share how this story relates to their lives. Remember, stories were the way we passed down history - in this case family history.

Autor

Tom Oberdorfer is a licensed social worker and retired therapist who worked with young people and their families for more than 40 years. He has coached lacrosse for college, high school, and middle school teams for half a century, and he continues to lose his voice in encouraging his players. Both experiences have been instrumental in the writing of "Winners Lose, Too" and ground his belief in the power of athletic failure and the resulting ultimate recovery and triumph. For two and half years, Oberdorfer and his father, a federal judge, met weekly and did a writing exercise from the book "What If?," by Anne Bernays and Pamela Painter. He believes that experience was instrumental in enhancing his writing skills. The lesson learned was that his or his dad's writing wasn't better than the others; it was different. "Winners Lose, Too" is his second book. He also self-published a children's book, "OMG The Big Bad Wolf Can't Find the Three Little Pigs," a story of what happens when things don't go as planned. Oberdorfer lives in the Washington, D.C., area. In addition to writing and coaching, he tutors low-income elementary school-aged students.
