"Kids Under Fire: Seven Steps to Combat the Media Attack on Your Child" will be addressed in a seminar here at the store.

Hosted by the authors, you will discover how to: ask the right
questions, interpret statistics, understand the media's effect on your
child's brain, avoid low achievement, and take advantage of the best
that media does have to offer.

If you feel 'behind' technology and it's only getting worse every
year, this evening's event is perfect for you with easy step-by-step
examples that work, peppered with humorous, poignant stories.
