Debi Pearl's YELL AND TELL Teaches Child Safety with Fun

Bookmark and Share
Debi Pearl's latest children's book, YELL AND TELL, is written in delightful rhyme. It presents the topic of child abuse in a straightforward manner on a child’s level. Abusers are shown as persuasive, not always a stranger, and not always an adult. Instead of identifying a certain category of person, children are taught to identify bad behaviors and YELL AND TELL immediately.

Samuel is a little boy and the book's main character. Samuel has several short discussions with his mom. They discuss several scenarios and how Samuel must always yell and tell when anyone tries to lure him to touch or expose private areas.

The fun and colorful images follow Samuel, his mom, his dog and cat throughout his active day. The pictures are not graphic, anatomical, or menacing. Rather, it’s presented as if Samuel is a super-hero kid; standing up for that which is right and alerting others if he encounters dangerous individuals.

I liked the way Samuel’s mother asks him to come to her if he encounters inappropriate pictures or the temptation to hide and engage in unacceptable behaviors. Evil and temptation are presented as part of reality, and Samuel is taught from that perspective by a loving mother equipping her son to handle that reality. He's praised and commended when he resists the temptation to do wrong and get away with it.


Parents will also find YELL AND TELL a useful encouragement. With a likable main character, fun rhymes and engaging pictures, it'll soon become a favorite read-again/read-aloud book. The text provides you with numerous opportunities for conversations about how to be aware of dangers and address evil. Additionally, there is a section at the end of the volume that provides useful tips parents are able to use to help protect their children.

If you have been searching for a book which enables you to you teach child safety in a fun way and gives you a heads-up on how these criminals operate, YELL AND TELL is well worth the investment!

Mark and Erin Harrison along with their 5 children have managed to produce yet another delightful DVD in their HOMESTEADING FOR BEGINNERS series.

ABOUT THE HARRISONS:
Mark and Erin moved to the country and renovated an old farm house several years ago. They gradually gleaned the skills they needed to make a go of it from their Amish neighbors.

Now, Erin and Mark have invited the viewer into their home to learn and laugh with them through the many adventures of homesteading.


HOMESTEADING FOR BEGINNERS VOLUME 3 covers the lost art of meat canning. Get an inside view of their community as Amish neighbors join in to can pork and beef. Learn to process meat and can it in many very handy ways. Learn the art of canning carrots, potatoes, and tomatoes. Plus, Erin shows you how to make your own noodles, and a sprouted grain, no yeast, no sugar bread. As always, the children have fun helping mom in the kitchen.

Award-winning author Debi Pearl's newest book for children helps them learn how to respond if a sexual predator approaches them. Children are shown how to identify predators whether another child, a family friend, an older sibling, a sports coach, a church leader, or another relative.
Yell and Tell is written in a rhythmic rhyme that is easy for children to remember and recite. The story is kept simple and introduces a fun loving little boy named Samuel as its main character.

The engaging story will capture the interest of children as young as four years old through pre-teens. Samuel's mother patiently instructs him in four easy to understand lessons to consider how he should respond if he is approached by a sexual predator.
What will you do, my Samuel?
You’re just a little boy
When he says to you, Shhhh don’t yell?
And don’t you ever, ever tell.
What will you do?
What will you do?
Will you yell and tell?
Samuel considers his response and assures his mother that he will always yell and tell.
I know, I know, I’m just a boy.
But I can yell and I can tell.
I’ll yell so loud and yell so long that
The table shakes and rumbles
And then I’ll run and yell and tell
I’ll make that old devil grumble.

This book is a valuable tool for parents wanting to reinforce lessons that help keep their children safe from those that target little ones. Follow this blog for further updates and the Amazon blitz coming in November!

DEBI PEARL'S LATEST PROJECT A NEW CHILDREN'S BOOK

Bookmark and Share
A new book by Debi Pearl is in the works! She's working on a book for children about how they can protect themselves from predators.

Here's a quote from her blog:


Cultivating Cautious Chicks -
Protecting Children
from Predators


posted July 2010 by Debi Pearl

You may have noticed in our latest issue Mike’s article for parents that discover their child has been exposed to sexual activity (WHEN THE WORST HAPPENS, June 2010). We’ve also made available for free an audio download called SEX EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN. This is because we sometimes get heartbreaking letters. The most heartbreaking ones have to do with children.

Yard chickens develop a natural pecking order. Mama hens brood and raise little chicks. Roosters protect the hens and vie for position. At least, that's how it used to be.

Today, if you go to the feed store and get little chicks, you’ll find that brooding and natural mothering tendencies have been bred out of them. This is because corporate chicken farms need to have everything streamlined. This means that eggs are hatched in a hatchery and baby chicks are never taught to scratch for bugs by a mama hen.
If you place these distant descendants of yard chickens into an actual yard, they will be defenseless. The hens weren’t taught how to be mamas, so they don’t know how to teach the chicks. The roosters never learned from example either, so they bully rather than protect. These birds won’t know what to do when a hawk’s shadow flitters across the grass. In the chaos of that chicken yard, they’d all be easy pickings for the first predator to show up. Of course, the chicks would be the first to go.

So, what do you do when the chicks are in danger? You call to them. You cluck a warning. You show them where to hide and how to run to help. Chicks need to know that there are bad guys and they need to know how to stay safe.

That’s why I’ve been working, working, working to complete another children’s book called YELL AND TELL. I don’t know when it will be complete, but I’ll REALLY appreciate your prayers as things move forward. Keep watching my blog and No Greater Joy Magazine, and I’ll update you on the progress!

A TIME TO LEARN!

Bookmark and Share


Being a good help meet starts long before marriage. It is a mindset, a learned habit, a way of life established as a young unmarried girl—or at least that's the way it should be.

Most girls spend plenty of time planning for their wedding, but make no preparation for the weeks and years to follow. It was with good reason God said let the aged women teach the younger. Trial and error is not the best teacher when it comes to marriage. It is much less painful to learn beforehand what God has to say about your role as a help meet to that special man God will bring into your life. It is the older women who have experienced the joys of a good marriage whom God has appointed to pass along his instructions.

PREPARING TO BE A HELP MEET is a book for young girls that also can inspire married women to recapture the hope and dreams that bring two people together in marriage. This book helps young girls and women begin to re-consider their priorities as they prepare to embark on one of life's grandest adventures.

PREPARING TO BE A HELP MEET contains six sweet love stories written by wives sharing their experiences about how God taught them to be the help meets they are today. Three of the stories are from wives that have been married over 40 years. Three stories are by new brides who, before marriage, were trained to be the help meet God intended. All the love stories are beautiful, and will show you how wonderful it is to walk together in Gods light.

In addition to the six personal testimonies, this book is full of short stories from a wide range of cultural backgrounds. Funny tales, ideas of how to gain a good mans attention, and even a tragic testimony all teach important lessons. You will meet Grabbers and Hidden Flowers, and discover how to avoid being either.

This is a book mothers will want to have on their shelves as they seek to bring up daughters and prepare them for the future.

MAKING HOME FUN WITH A CROCK POT MARRIAGE

Bookmark and Share
My friends and I gathered around the supper table. It had been a long day of classes and lectures. Our conversation turned to our favorite things: our spouses and our children!

We enjoyed a good chuckle over the antics of our children, and got to know each other a little better.

One of the people there was a bearded farmer named Johnny. His face lit up as he talked about investing a few dollars so that he could get each of his kids a headlamp. When the days get short, his crew plays outside a little longer. I could just imagine hearing little ones laughing and running, playing tag after dark, while their battery-operated lights cut through the night.

We could tell Johnny missed his family -- especially his wife! He seemed a little lost without her.

The conversation turned to the sadness we sometimes see in families and marriages. Johnny's eyes took on an earnest twinkle as he said, 'What most men don't realize is that women are like crock pots.'

I wasn't sure where he was going with this. Was he talking about handles or the shape?

He seemed amused by our puzzled looks and continued.

'Well if you want to have a good meal for supper that night, you've got to put some good stuff in the pot and turn it on long BEFORE you expect to eat. If you wait 30 minutes before eating and toss some frozen stuff in there, you can't blame the crock pot when your supper is cold and undercooked. It's the same with wives and marriage. You gotta think ahead, fill it up with the right ingredients, add a spark and keep it warm if you want something good in return.'

I stopped chewing and stared. He was right. Farmer Johnny got it right and put the profound in simple terms. You want fun? Invest in fun. You want a good marriage? Put good stuff in there. Makes sense. Smart man!

"Somewhere over the passing years and changing culture, women have lost their way. This book is written to lead them back home.

MICHAEL PEARL LAUGHS AT CRITICS

Take the time to add No Greater Joy to your friend's list today!




It has come to may attention that a vocal few are decrying our sensible application of the Biblical rod in training up our children. I laugh at my caustic critics, for our properly spanked and trained children grow to maturity in great peace and love.

Numbered in the millions, these kids become the models of self-control and discipline, highly educated and creative—entrepreneurs that pay the taxes your children will receive in entitlements. When your children finally find an honest mechanic or a trustworthy homebuilder, it will be one of ours.

When your children apply for a job it will be at a company our children founded. When they go to a doctor, it will be one of our Christian children that heals them with cutting edge innovation. When your adult kids go for therapy it will be one of our kids-become-psychologist that directs them to the couch and challenges them to release their self-loathing and embrace hope for a better tomorrow. When your children grow old and realize their mortality and seek to make peace with their Creator, it will be one of our children that shares with them the message of God’s love and forgiveness.

My five grown children are laughing at your foolish, uninformed criticism of God’s method of child training, for their kids—my 17 grandkids—are laughing . . . because that is what they do most of the time. They laugh when Daddy is coming home. The laugh when it is time to do more homeschooling. They laugh when it is time to practice the violin and piano. They laugh when they see their Big Papa coming (that’s me) because Big Papa is laughing and they don’t care why just as long as he laughs with them.

My granddaughters laugh with joy after giving their baby dolls a spanking for “being naughty” because they know their dolls will grow up to be the best mamas and daddies in the world—just like them.

People all around the world, in places like Russia, China, Germany, New Zealand, Guatemala, Peru, Africa, and fifty other countries are laughing with joy because after applying the Biblical principles found in our books they finally have happy and obedient children.

Even my chickens are laughing . . . well, actually it more like cackling, because they just laid another organic egg for my breakfast and they know that it was that same piece of ¼ inch plastic supply line that trained the dogs not to eat chicken....

I never had any affection for snakes, but to catch one and hold its cool, dry, wiggling, body in your hands, and then to turn it loose to slither away to its shadowy existence was a mastery of self more than of the serpent. ~ Boys, Snakes and Men


The article then goes on to give an example of how he built on that childhood adventure to make a VERY memorable experience for some boys visiting his home.

LISTEN TO MY DREAM -- CREATING A THIRST FOR GREATNESS

Bookmark and Share
"Mom, this stuff is BORING!"

That's what more than one homeschooling parent has heard when a student encounters a challenging task. So much of learning is fun, but there comes a time in every student's career when there is some hard work involved and some self-discipline.

It's true for all of us, really. We all know what we OUGHT to do, but the temptation when things become difficult is to look for a shortcut or quit. It's just easier to do the heavy lifting when the rewards are immediate . . . Who wants to bloom when there is no promise of spring? When you can't see the finish line? When you don't know for sure that the outcome will be to your personal benefit?

When the only reward is knowing that you did the right thing for the right reason in the right way?

The people that have been inspired. That's who. When you are working towards a higher goal, when you know your purpose is righteous and when you know there is something bigger than your personal comfort/discomfort at stake. When you have a dream.

That's why it's important for children to have heroes. They can learn about the childhood adventures of men and women that later went on to make a difference and change history. When students feel overwhelmed, they can remember how great figures in history had to struggle for the opportunity to learn so that they might one day stand and defend a righteous cause.

Debi Pearl's newest book LISTEN TO MY DREAM is a wonderful tool to help give students an inspirational hero and encourage them on to do the hard work of learning -- on those days when it's not necessarily fun, when the finish line seems so far away.

In LISTEN TO MY DREAM, Debi takes the reader through the childhood of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. She tells how he worked to develop skills that would one day help him to inspire people to call for change in the laws that allowed citizens to be mistreated.

Here's a quote from the article CHEERFUL, AUTHORITATIVE, CONSISTENT by Michael Pearl
Being a good child trainer and parent is not beyond the reach of any Christian parent. If you feel incompetent to bring your children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, that is no indication that you are going to fail. There are three qualities parents must possess in order to produce well trained and disciplined young adults: cheerfulness, authoritative command, and consistency.

Of these three, the greatest of these is cheerfulness. It is the first and most important quality a child trainer must possess.
