The Conscience Celebration: A Story About Moral Flourishing
(IU Conscience Project, 1999) Galvin, Matthew R.; Stilwell, Barbara M.
This is a serialized book with a new episode appearing approximately every two months. Neither morally didactic (i.e. it is not a book of virtues); nor a "How To" book about moral reasoning with Kohlbergian dilemmas; nor a workbook on values clarification. This book is intended to be informative to children about what they and their peers are experiencing, in common and diverse experiences, as their consciences develop. It is a secular, psychoeducational book about conscience development and functioning. As such, it provides tools to discuss moral development the way educational videos assist teacher, parent and child with discussion of sexual development and sexuality.
Rachel and the 7 Bridges of Conscience-berg
(2002) Galvin, Matthew R.; Gaffney, Margaret M.; Stilwell, Barbara M.
This second storybook is a fantasy sequel to The Conscience Celebration. Many real-life contributors to the study of moral development are honored for their labors in fictitious Conscience-Berg. With the help of an Imp, Rachel, the fictitious protagonist, finds something else: how each domain of conscience is linked with a bedrock value and how all the domains and bedrock values are inextricably connected.
