Synopsis

Conventional wisdom holds that some children are "born shy," destined for a lifetime of timidity and underachievement, or that they will magically outgrow their shyness as they mature. Bernardo Carducci, Ph.D. debunks these myths. He reveals that they are stuck in an approach/avoidance conflict that makes it difficult for them to warm up to new situations and often leaves them clinging to narrow comfort zones. He identifies the skills that allow children to take control of their anxieties and explains how parents can nurture these skills.

Revue de presse

Dr. Carducci brings years of experience successfully working with shy youngsters to this set of new advice on transforming shyness into sociability." --Philip G. Zimbardo, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Stanford University and author of The Shy Child: A Parent's Guide to Preventing and Overcoming Shyness from Infancy to Adulthood

His new book provides a well-organized, easy to use, and tremendously helpful Shyness Breakthrough Plan that will help parents guide a shy child or adolescent toward success." --Jonathan M. Cheek, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Wellesley College and author of Conquering Shyness

"Dr. Carducci always surprises me with his creative thinking and compassion. I am impressed by how well he listens to the voices of the shy and extracts so much meaning from them. All in all, this is a book of wise optimism that can help children break out of the prison that shyness can sometimes be for them." --Hara Estroff Marano, editor-at-large for Psychology Today magazine
