Product Description
Follow the Yellow Brick Road is for people who want to change and grow. And the most powerful way to learn new habits and truly change is through experience. Dorothy did not develop Scarecrow-knowing, Tin Man-heart and Lion-courage from a book. It was not from a lecture that Dorothy discovered her wizard was a fraud and that if she faced her scary witch, the witch would melt. She learned these vital life lessons along the Yellow Brick Road.
Follow the Yellow Brick Road is especially for people who have ever had a twister pick up their life and drop them into a strange and uncharted land. If you are having trouble managing at work, going through a break-up, are caught in an addiction, have lost a loved one, or are in a challenging relationship, then you are in the Land of Oz and need to do as Glinda instructed: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.
"Follow the Yellow Brick Road is a wonderful metaphor for understanding our lives and our relationships. I would recommend it to anyone as a tool for personal or corporate growth."
-Dan Maltby, Ph.D., Director of the Organizational
Leadership Program, Biola University

personal growth, July 21 2007
By Dwight Reynolds "drdmiami" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Follow the Yellow Brick Road: How to Change for the Better When Life Gives You Its Worst (Paperback)
Great book. A very good book for those who have been working on their personal growth and those that want to explore their own idealized/unrealistic expectations of themselves. Life can be difficult but we can learn how to find ways of being more peaceful and trusting in the process of our life(s).

Human Behavior Explained Through A Classic For All Ages, Feb 19 2011
By Blake Boyd - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Follow the Yellow Brick Road: How to Change for the Better When Life Gives You Its Worst (Paperback)
An excellent book!Dr. Alibrando takes complex ideas from his many decades of helping people and brakes them down in easily understood and workable pieces using the classic characters from "The Wizard of Oz". Anyone who has seen the film and has a a desire to grow can benefit from the author's simple yet thorough explanations. The film is an enduring classic because there was a psychological backdrop that resonated with generations. Alibrando's explanations, using the films characters, will resonate with readers and likely change lives. It certainly changed mine.
Read it!
Sincerely,

Make a Difference In Your Life, Sep 28 2011
By Eleanor Torres - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Follow the Yellow Brick Road: How to Change for the Better When Life Gives You Its Worst (Paperback)
When it was first suggested to me to read this book I did it with some resistance. But I was in a rough patch in my life and I was looking for some help understanding what was going on with me personally. Dr. Alibrando's book was frankly a nice surprise. It helped me understand dynamics of my own choices and relationships in a way that was not condescending and was indeed relevant to what I was going through. If you are interested in making changes in your life and deaing with the inevitable chaos that we all have to deal with, this is a great book to enable personal change. I learned that obstacles are inevitable but how we transverse those obstacles is not. I have a choice in the dynamics of my life and this book helped me recognize that. A great intelligent choice for personal growth.
