DELHI, India - Oct. 1, 2014 - PRLog -- From Prasenjeet Kumar, the author of Quiet Phoenix, the Amazon #1 Bestseller in the Hot New Releases category in Behavioural Psychology and in Legal Profession, comes a sequel that no one who deals with introverted children should miss.

The name of this book is “Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment: A Memoir of an Introverted Child”.  This book is on pre-order on Amazon till 8 October 2014 (which is incidentally the author’s birthday).

The underlying theme of the book is that just as a Phoenix Bird is hardwired to be reborn from the ashes of her ancestors, her tears are meant to cure wounds and she symbolises undying hope and optimism, so is your Quiet child built for persistence, creativity, and self-discipline; and for displaying a knack for self-learning, high emotional intelligence and an impeccable sense of moral responsibility.

Instead of cherishing such rare traits, introverts are sadly often misunderstood by almost every one. Parents worry if their children prefer spending time in solitude, probably day dreaming. Teachers presume that if a child hesitates to answer questions, she must be having some kind of learning or even social disability. Quiet Children have difficulties in making friends, with their classmates seeing them as “weird”, “rude” or “arrogant”. They are seen as “over” sensitive to mean comments or bullying. They appear to lack aggression or as some say ‘the will to fight back’. Overall, introverted children seem to be more flustered about almost every facet of life in noisy and large Public Schools.

Any advice that Quiet children should be more ‘outgoing’, ‘sociable’ and ‘active’ seems to be counterproductive. Any aggressive follow up on this advice often results in your Quiet child losing her self-esteem, forcing her to become even more withdrawn.

With fables, stories and real incidents from the author’s own childhood “Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment”  reiteratesthat introvert Children being asked to behave in a more extroverted fashion is like asking a young Phoenix bird to behave like an Eagle.

Every child is born with some unique traits. The challenge is: how parents, teachers and friends can recognize, nurture and enhance those powers so that every child, quiet or loquacious, becomes a winner.

Quiet Phoenix  2: From Failure to Fulfilment” sincerely intends to help everyone dealing with ‘Quiet Children’ to cherish and celebrate them for what they are.

And to help them rise above everything; to lead them towards a path of happiness leaving behind all old memories of pain and isolation; and to turn them into life’s winners.

Just like the Phoenix rising from the ashes.

With real life characters like Ms. Brownie Points, Mr. Noisy Ferrari and Ms. Pencil Snatcher, this book is intended for everyone--a parent, teacher, or sports Coach, who wants to understand how to harness the powers of Quiet children in an extroverted world.

And if you are an introvert adult, you may find this book useful in understanding yourself, your past and what you want out of life in the future.

The book is currently available in the Kindle-format only but a paperback version is expected soon.
