Linda Inlow (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 15, 2000

The 126 pages are an interactive means for the reader to get acquainted with the many facets of self - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

Although the reader may open and begin responding at any page the book flows from the central focus of the self, outward to family, neighborhood, and the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Made me Think, April 4, 2001

This review is from: Becoming Me : A Journey Toward Self Discovery for the Child, Adolescent and Adult (Paperback)

This is an interactive workbook that not only I but my husband enjoyed as well. We have spent many hours discussing our answers, thoughts, hopes and dreams. We have been together nearly half a century, amazing some of the topics we didn't cover. I highly recommend this for people of all ages. I did buy Dr. Beattie Inlows, Becoming ME: an autobiography for my grandchildren last year.

This review is from: Becoming Me : A Journey Toward Self Discovery for the Child, Adolescent and Adult (Paperback)

I have been an Amazon customer for more years than I care to count and until now I have NEVER returned a book! The prompts in this book (e.g., "Our family drives" "God and I talk when" "When I'm older I want to live") are in no way thought provoking and as a result do not elict any level of self-discovery. Most people, even children, already know what bugs them, or about their favorite holiday.
Because this book is written for, in addition to children, adolescents and adults I certainly would have expected prompts that require the reader to really look within. If this is what you are looking to do, this is not the book for you.
As a psychotherapist, I purchased it for my patients but had even hoped I would personally enjoy a few of the chapters but needless to say this was not the case.
One might use this book to learn more about the person responding to the prompts, but the reader is unlikely to discover anything new about him or herself.

This review is from: Becoming Me : A Journey Toward Self Discovery for the Child, Adolescent and Adult (Paperback)

This interactive format provided me with several thought provoking moments. I truly enjoyed tapping into parts of my life that I seldom consider or ponder. Had a great time. I'd love to have my girlfriend answer some of the questions - could learn a lot about each other.
