MSUM Library

honors the 2002 promotion/tenure of

Lisa Stewart

Psychology

Silverstein, Shel.  Uncle Shelby’s ABZ: A Primer for Tender Young Minds.  New York: Simon, 1961.


Dr. Stewart chose this book because:

“I chose the field of school psychology because I enjoy working with kids and families and also enjoy being around other people who dedicate themselves to kids and families.  In my line of work, we often are working with children who are difficult to teach, enjoy ‘testing the limits’ or have had one barrier after another stacked up against them.  We can learn a lot from these children.  One thing I have learned is that laughter truly is a blessing and a cure for the frustration or hopelessness that can build up when working on seemingly insurmountable barriers.  This book makes me laugh every time I open it.  Kids love it, too…..but be careful who you show it to!!”
