Book Synopsis
Bite Your Tongue, Alex: Think Twice” is an interactive play book for young people, under the direction of an adult leader.
There is a moral decay in our society. We must begin to disinfect the ills by training our children. The concept of this playbook is to instill and reinforce character development. The writer, Madame C. Ibena Asante, a Retired Teacher, believes character development must be part of the whole person development. There was a time when Aesop Fables were used to teach critical thinking and morality to solve problems. Now our young people learn by default, often taking the wrong roads and creating a path filled with thorns. This playbook can be used for schools, community performances and talent shows.
It is conceivable, this anthology of plays, skits, spoken words, and short stories will meet the intended goal of active participation and will instill wisdom for young people. An exciting implementation to restorative justice.
