Joy Berry

Joy Berry is an educator, parenting expert and child-development specialist who began writing self-help books for children more than 30 years ago when she couldn't find books that matched her philosophy of raising responsible children.

Joy Berry Books are designed to address childhood issues at each specific age and grade level. As Joy Berry says, "Children can accomplish almost anything they're developmentally ready to achieve and are highly motivated to accomplish."

"As an elementary school teacher, I knew that the education system wasn't teaching children life lessons in addition to academic subjects. I created a program that incorporated living skills education, and since nothing like it was being taught in the school system at the time, I began to develop self-help materials to support my program. Books came soon after." - Joy Berry

Famous quotes containing the words joy and/or berry:

    The aftermath of joy is not usually more joy.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Attachment to a baby is a long-term process, not a single, magical moment. The opportunity for bonding at birth may be compared to falling in love—staying in love takes longer and demands more work.
    —T. Berry Brazelton (20th century)
