How To Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish was recommended in The Happiness Project. It sounded intriguing, so I got it from the library. This book gives tips on effective methods of communication with kids to better handle conflicts, feelings, etc.
This was a really good book. Emmeline isn't old enough for me to be able to apply these skills right now, but I think it was a great overview to keep in mind for the future. (And then I'll probably want to re-read this book in a few years.) The book was a quick read with comics, lists, and personal experiences all tied in with the authors' advice. It really had some great ideas about little adjustments you can make to just have more success with family relationships.
