Every person gets a chance to re-evaluate the choices they make in their lives, just like the protagonist.

The truth is there are so many things we know are harmful to us, but we cannot get rid of them. It could be anything from a dependency on chocolates, a habit to binge on food (for whatever reason), being a shopaholic to being a smoker or a regular drinker.
Every habit that has some kind of negative influence attached to it, is harmful.
Sometimes we think we can stop doing things that can harm us whenever we want to. We see the signs, the warnings and act on it.
However, we often end up repeating the same behavior.
Therefore, every behavior has a pattern. And this pattern leads to self-sabotage.
Author Dr. Judy Ho has not only explained self-sabotage with such relatable examples that they are easy to understand, but she has also shared tips on how they can be overcome.
The exercises in the audiobook to overcome self-sabotage are easy to follow and ensure that we successfully break from a pattern of self-destruction with consistent practice and self-awareness.

To write a book is always a great opportunity to connect with the readers. However, to write a book with a purpose to spread awareness among the readers is a huge responsibility.
Author Jennifer Price through EmpowerEd (Using Real Case Examples To Look Deeper into IEP Management) has not only done a great job at educating the readers about learning difficulties in school-going children, but she has also shared case studies to elaborate on the issues and share the right course of action.
Every chapter of EmpowerEd ends with a few questions that help determine if the parents/caregiver have faced similar difficulties and how they can zero on the fact that their children need help.
The book EmpowerEd does not only mention about those children who have learning disabilities and need special attention but also about those students who excel at their area of interest and at school even with the learning disability/ difficulty.
It is imperative for parents, caregivers, teachers, school administration and the education department to appreciate how every student is different and how important it is it deals with each problem with a case by case perspective.
Individualised Education Programme is an important concept. It is an effective method to spread effective education among children. However, there are many parents who do now recognize if their children need special IEP. There are parents who do understand the need, but they don’t know how to get their children the much-needed attention.
Author Jennifer Price has addressed many telltale signs and how to ensure that parents/caregivers get their children the best possible academic help through the book EmpowerEd.
It is amazing to see how much America cares about providing the best possible and effective education for young citizens. I hope other developing countries also get inspired by EmpowerEd by Jennifer Price and overhaul the education system in their countries.
Only education can carve a successful next generation. EmpowerEd by Jennifer Price is an eye-opener. For such a valuable contribution to society, we at WeLoveQualityBooks give EmpowerEd (Using Real Case Examples To Look Deeper into IEP Management) by Jennifer Price, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- 5 Stars!

Title: No Entry

No Entry is a Young Adult Novel written by Gila Green.
The story is set in South Africa and the Kruger National Park. The protagonist, Yael Amar finds difficult to cope with a traumatic experience. To divert herself from the never-ending pain, brave Yael takes up a course in forest conservation that brings her to South Africa and Kruger National Park.
Yael shows grit and determination to win over challenges. She makes some friends in the process and has a life altering experience.
Her fascination with elephants only multiplies during the trip and she finds her calling by the end of the novel.
Author Gila Green chalks out genuine and identifiable characters in the novel, No Entry. She beautifully expresses angst and longing that most young adults deal with everyday. Some teens and young adults deal with over protective parents while there are those who deal with over indulging parents. Then there are those whose parents strike the right balance.
Through the book No Entry, author Gila Green has described how different styles of parenting shape children differently and why what might work with one child might not work with another. The book also describes young love and its transitions perfectly.
What touched the most was the issue with elephant poaching. Gila Green’s words and their imagery tears the heart out. The words, although subtle, leave a lasting impression.
By the end of No Entry author Gila Green will convert all her readers into elephants lovers, if not wildlife conservationists. The author’s narrative about elephant poaching is convincing, touching and heartbreaking. The problems that genuine conservationists face is also realistically expressed.
As an animal lover, I thoroughly enjoyed reading No Entry. There are some heartwarming scenes between Yael and a baby elephant (no, you have to read the novel to know her name) that made me envy the protagonist.
The plot is great and the treatment of the characters is perfect. The plight of the locals who live around forest reservations is also touched upon. The climax of No Entry however, could have been tighter although the climax doesn’t affect the element of surprise that author Gila Green skilfully creates in the novel.
No Entry is a must read for all young adults, adults, nature lovers, animal lovers, elephants conservationists, wildlife conservationists and anyone who likes to read a novel that will transform the way you think.
For such a lovely book that celebrates bravery, compassion and of course the love of the wild, especially elephants ?, WeLoveQualityBooks gives the novel No Entry by Gila Green 4.5 Stars!
