DONATE A BOOK CAMPAIGN

I am having a fundraising entitled 'donate a book' in Davidson Mains Church Edinburgh, along Queens Ferry Road on the 13th of November at 7.30. I published a book this year-DISCIPLINING CHILDREN: A GUIDE FOR NURSERY AND LOWER PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS (AND PARENTS). For those coming from the developing world and Uganda in particular, we know that disciplining children especially in our education system is a big issue. Because of the ONE approach-beatings/corporal punishment which is widely used, many children have been badly affected up to the extent of many of them dropping out of school, and many have lost their lives. This book teaches teachers as well as parents, the alternative approaches to disciplining children. My heart's desire is for every teacher and parent to have access to this book. The response has been very positive and over 500 books have been bought. BUT there are those teachers and parents who cannot afford to buy a copy. This fundraising will help me to raise funds so that the book is either given out for free or subsidized. The book will be available to buy on the day.
