Reader messed up a lot

The reader messed up alot and then never cut the bloopers out. So it is distracting and hard to get back into what she’s trying to see so it will help.

Good advice overall

I really enjoyed this book for the most part. I’d really prefer race wasn’t brought into this at all as no matter the color of your skin everyone has racism inflicted on them at some point. Overall a good listen. Sincerely just another Colored Man.

Narration issues

Most the info in this book is helpful. I do have a few issues with it though. First, the recording: I don’t know how Audible accepted this recording or how the author approved its use. It is horrible. It sounds like she is in a tunnel, and is her shitty first draft attempt at narrating it. You literally hear her stop and restart the same sentences, hear her comments under her breath and blatantly out loud about her mistakes or her thoughts about “actually putting that in this book”. If it was mistakenly uploaded this way, I feel bad for the author and am trying to let her know here so she is aware. It really takes away from the content. My second issue has to do with her talking about how she loves to laugh at her participants (to their face) when she was right or agreed with the parents and the kids didn’t believe her. How shameful to the people she is helping. Maybe it works for her and these kids. It just comes across not compassionate at all. Then there were just some parenting-style things I did not agree with. That’s fine, everyone can have different opinions. There still is useful info in the book making it worth the quick listen. That is definitely a positive about the book…
short and to the point to get parents a jump start.

Some good info if you can get past the narrator’s bloopers & ego.

Before writing my own review I checked the other reviews for this audiobook to make sure it wasn’t some isolated issue/version that I was listening to. But other reviews from many months ago all stated the same complaints and obviously no corrections were made so I will sound like a broken record. The book does have some good points and helpful narratives to use when conversing with your child. I did have to rewind several times to filter out the narrator bloopers and background talk to make sure I was catching the actual good stuff not just cussing up her own mistakes. Listening to how good she is at her job and how she can get results with kids better than anyone else made her more credible in my eyes the first time. But when you hear it over and over and over again, all I could think was “enough already, we know you’re great”. I’m actually not one to leave harsh reviews ever, but to actually send this version of a recording out into the world to be listened to by millions I just can’t take her seriously. I will definitely be looking for a much better quality book for help.
