## Description

"My name is Norman David Edwards, but everybody calls me Noodle. Some days, my life just stinks! " Turn scowls and negativity into smiles and positivity! Teach complainers and pessimists to overcome bad moods or feelings of hopelessness by changing their outlook. Learn from Noodle, a boy whose attitude, or ‘baditude,’ is alienating everyone around him. With help from a teacher and his mom, Noodle learns how to turn his ‘have tos’ into ‘get tos’ and his ‘baditude’ into gratitude! Kids in grades K through 6 are empowered to actively look for positives in all situations and manage how they choose to feel about what they cannot control. This title is from the Responsible Me! series by award-winning author Julia Cook. The series promotes life skills, strengthens character development, and helps kids use better social skills at school and at home. Included at the end of the storybook are tips for parents and educators to help students turn a negative attitude into a positive attitude. The series also includes: But It's Not My Fault That Rule Doesn't Apply to Me! Cheaters Never Prosper The Procrastinator What's in It For Me?

Review: Explains things using relatable kid experiences - Bought this book on a whim to see if it could help my kids better understand attitude in their terms. It does just that, through various situations that would happen in a kid's DITL. Great book.
Review: Awesome book for 3rd Grade! - I love the many lessons in this book! I have read it to my 3rd Graders, and we use a lot of the language in the book within our grade level now. Only thing is that when trying to figure out what the word "gratitude" means, one of my very perceptive kids said, "Well, if a baditude is a bad attitude, then gratitude must be a great attitude"! Of course I loved the reading skills and context clues that he used and praised him like crazy, but that's not really the definition. I think it would be good if the author actually defined "gratitude", but it's certainly not deal-breaker (and, of course, is the job of the teacher). Regardless, this is an awesome book with tons of great lessons - for kids AND adults!

*by A***R on October 14, 2016*

This book is great. I even bought a copy of it for my son's second grade teacher after reading it to the class. It helps clearly articulate the concept of having a bad attitude and provides options for helping turn it around. I find myself saying to my children, "Let's turn that baditude into gratitude"! It works! Honestly, all of the Julia Cook books are great and have been helpful with my children because the stories are relatable but interesting.
