Excerpt from Giraffe Juice

Book on Compassionate Communication for Young People

by Marci Winters and JP Allen

Giraffe Juice

Eva stepped into dad's old barn by the woods and discovered a  very unusual, unexpected guest.

 

What was he doing and how did he get there? One thing for sure...from the moment they met...her whole world changed forever. Jip used to be Eva's best friend, but now that he's the school bully

and she's his main target, life has become hard.

 

 

Eva is a guitar playing, harmonica-jamming girl who can make musical notes do wonders but when it comes to getting Jip to leave her alone at school, she doesn't even know where to start.

 

 

Then one day, Eva goes into her family's barn and finds an unlikely visitor, a giraffe named Marvel, who shares with her a magical new way to make peace with people who are hard to get along with.


Testimonials

 

* "The things that Lara learned this summer with Compassionate Communication were vital to her life experience.

Our family (mine with my Mom) did not have that type of communication in its history and she has seen a lot of ugliness in her short life between me and my family. Anyway, I know this is long, but I wanted to express unequivocally to you how much I cherish your gifts and your willingness to give them.

Thank you for being there for my family and to my daughter."

 

* "My name is Kym. I am seventeen years old and am currently a high school student. I came to work one day and was talking to a friend about some issues I was having with some of my ex boyfriend's friends who constantly were bullying me. It was an every day thing for them, to make fun of me and they never stopped. One night I was in my car and they continuously punched my car windows trying to get me out.  My friend lent me Giraffe Juice and promised I would feel so much better, and I did. I felt better about not only this particular situation but many other situations I encounter in school, and at home etc. I loved the book so much I wrote a book report on it and got an A+. I just wanted to say thank you very much. I am starting to use Marvel's four steps in my every day life."

 

* "Your book was a blessing in my life, and I will always remember the four steps. I have been spreading the news about Giraffe Juice around school, and to all my friends."
