I Can't Believe You Said That!: My Story about Using My Social Filter...or Not! (Best Me I Can Be!) by Julia Cook [Paperback]

The Best Me I Can Be! series offers help for children who say inappropriate things. RJ says what he thinks? no matter how it sounds or makes others feel: ?Gram, how come your skin looks like a Dalmatian?? ?She stinks, Mom!? ?Well then why are you getting so fat?? RJ?s mouth is getting him into a lot of trouble. A rude comment at school earned him a detention. An insensitive remark at home earned him a scolding and made his sister cry. RJ doesn?t realize his words are wrong. He thinks he?s just offering feedback. It?s time RJ starts using a social filter when he speaks. With help from his parents, he learns he doesn?t have to verbalize every thought that pops into his head. In fact, sometimes the less said the better! Tips for parents and educators included.

Reviews
"RJ is such a relatable character - nearly everyone has experienced a momentary lapse of their social filter! This book describes the connection between thoughts and appropriate social responses, using contexts that children have likely encountered themselves. A perfect resource to introduce children to the importance of social mindfulness." - Jill D.

Kuzma, M.A., CCC-SLP, "This book is so great - an oldie but a goodie for talking about social filters and thinking before we speak. I'm wrapping up using it with my fourth graders tomorrow and reflecting on a change I've made when reading it (letting in some laughs!). Shared a little more in my instastories (and will share more about the lesson tomorrow)." - Sara, @theresponsivecounselor
