Posha Books is dedicated to publishing children's books that provide teachable moments to children using the character, Posha The Rescued Dog. Although Posha is a rescued dog, she is incredibly happy, loves herself and loves her dog-mommy. She makes everyone who meets her happy. The first book in the series is entitled, "What Kind of Dog Am I?". The moral of this book is to bolster children's self-esteem by addressing the concept of self-identity. Through the work of Erik Erickson, the renowned child psychologist, research has shown that a child's strong positive self-identity correlates with higher self-esteem. According to the "Encyclopedia of Child's Health", children who have higher self-esteem, have an easier time handling conflicts, resisting negative pressures and making friends. They laugh and smile more and have a generally optimistic view of the world and life." Just like Posha! This book teaches children that identity is more than just the "name" people use to define us. Just like for Posha, the answer to the question, "Who Am I?" is not found in a "name", but it's found in a child's "forever family", the people who love them and who they love. This book is first in a series of books aimed at providing teachable moments to children, those moments when we can use an adorable character like Posha to provide context into an important life lesson. The first book, "What Kind of Dog Am I?" can be found on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/dp/0692323945
