Great book - it should be updated & put back into print

I found this book in an old church library, and read it with my eight-year-old and eleven-year-old daughters. Both of them liked it, and asked me to make some time management charts for them on the computer -- using the charts in the book as my examples. I'm surprised this book is out of print. Maybe reviews like this will convince the publisher to get it updated and/or reprinted sometime. The topic seems ripe for some kind of computer-based presentation, where the kids can start filling in the time management forms suggested in the book.

Great Time Management for Kids 0-99

I found this book to lay out just what time is, from the first second to a year. Talking not only about how many seconds in a minute, seasons in a year, but also how to make a list of what you need to do and set goals for future plans. It helped me grasp a better perspective on time than some adult time management books. It said something like: We all have the same number of minutes in a day, it's how we use those minutes that makes the difference. Not very profound, but something we don't see in perspective. Although the book is not very big, it is to the point, and clear. I've ordered a copy and though it was more that I'd like to spend, I feel it is worth it for my kids. Too bad this book is out of print. I hope someone else updates it or it get's reprinted.
