It is filled with practical advice and inspiring stories to engage both a child's gifts and passion. It also gives great advice for common problems like apathy, over-parenting and adversity. Keep it close by, whether at home or in the classroom!
The world needs your kid.
This is so much more than a book on bringing up children; it is a guide to inspiring global citizens. The future will depend on what we do today to nurture compassionate kids who care.
Raising the next generation is life’s greatest privilege and its most important responsibility. So consider this a roadmap — parents guiding children, children guiding parents. We’ve talked to educators, psychologists, coaches and parenting gurus. Better than that, we’ve consulted the greatest experts we know — Mom and Dad.
We also talked to kids. We’ve met with a million of them thanks to our work with Free The Children, the world’s largest network of children helping children through education.
