Setting goals, visualizing success, positive thinking and self-affirmation - all terms usually employed by adults on a self-improvement odyssey. Now Cape Town author Gary Hirson has written a fun, beautifully illustrated and easy-to-digest book for kids, The Power That's Ours, to introduce children to these empowering concepts. An interactive book with Fun Time activities at the end of each chapter, the book can simply be read as a story or used as a fun and easy introduction to goal-setting, visualisation, and affirmation. The Power That's Ours continues the tale of the adventurous siblings, Joel and Jina, with more exciting lessons from Magic, who guides them through both fun and testing times. Jina is helped by Magic as she nervously prepares for a show-jumping gymkhana. Joel in turn learns from his sister how to harness the power of positivity as he gears up for an important football match.The Power that's Ours is illustrated by exceptional young artist Carmen Ziervogel. Her evocative art adds enormous visual impact to the text, depicting in stunning clarity Joel and Jina's learning quest with Magic. Educational psychologist Catherine Normand has praised the broad appeal of The Power that's Ours, saying that Hirson, does an excellent job of illustrating the power of imagination in our lives and how we can harness this for positive thinking and goal-setting. The book demonstrates these essential life-skills, as well as how to make use of visualisation and personal affirmation. Normand adds that, many of our young people struggle with developing personal cognitive agency - so to be able to think about one's thought processes is empowering.
