Joy

By irsa arvidsson

JOY is a simple book to help children – between the ages of four and seven – realize the power of decision-making and identify natural action-outcome relationships. In this book, Joy faces five short decision-making situations ending with a question to create a space for further thoughts and discussions.
This book is not about reward and punishment as outcomes; simply because the whole concept of punishments and rewards; is based on negative assumptions about children — that they need to be controlled and shaped by us. But we can flip this around to see kids as little thinkers and decision-makers; wired for empathy, cooperation, team spirit, and hard work.
We hope you enjoy the book together with your little decision-maker of the future.

Who We R THE SHORT Irsa Arvidsson (me) is a mom who: . Loves interior design . Used to love clothes and skin care products . Is obsessed with Children’s books since she (I) became a mom . Thinks minimalistic and mostly gray . Loves drawing and writing THE LONG I moved to Stockholm year 2009 .. decided to start from this point otherwise it will take FOR EVER .. lots of things happened in between until I became a mother. Mom of the most amazing (sometimes difficult) boy on the earth, Elliot, and all of a sudden he became everything .. lots of other things happened again, and some day I realized that I think about this tiny guy and everything around him almost 87% of my days and sometimes nights .. do I worry too much or is this normal ? we forgot his carrot today and what if the play mat he is chewing on most of the days; is full of chemicals ?? you know what I mean 🙂 So I decided to enjoy and be happy together with him instead.. We loved books and I loved drawing and writing… such a perfect match. So I sat down and created. It helped me A LOT. Hope you enjoy our books as much as Elliot and I do 🙂 High Five to all of you loving worried moms or/and dads of course Elliot & Irsa @ Liikstabooks www.liiksta.com
