I Can Show You I Care: Compassionate Touch for Children
Susan Cotta
I Can Show You I Care: Compassionate Touch for Children, by Susan Cotta. This book is about how children can change the world using touch. Though the book is fiction, the results are real. It’s based on research conducted by the Upledger Institute (UI), showing that compassionate touch reduces violence and increases pro-social behaviors in schools. The book can be ordered at any bookstore or can be ordered from UI (800)233-5880
