I don't know what the previous reviewer is talking about, but Dr. Gardner's Stories About The Real World are wonderful examples of real life problem-solving for kids. There's nothing about sex or sex with fathers. That's just ludicrous! I use these stories in social skills groups to help children cope with common problems. The kids remember the stories and actually use the ideas in their lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for kids and parents, January 25, 2011

I used this book for nearly 30 years as a Child Therapist. I found the stories appropriate for kids of many ages. They present real issues, with logical, reasonable solutions in a way that kids can understand. He present stories that parents can read and discuss with younger children, or let older kids read them then talk about. Dr. Gardner's companion books are equally good.
