Alvin A. Rosenfeld

Recommended reading for parents as well as any relatives or professionals who might have any influence in the lives of parents or children. Answers such questions as: Whose life is it? and Is winning everything? Very practicle and thought provoking. The index and endnotes make it a good reference for education or child development majors.

I good book for any busy parent to read. Affirms the notion that childhood is fleeting and should not be wasted on to much of any type of activity. Children need time to be themselves. Would make a great baby shower gift.

GREAT book. Really moved me - I mean it. If you feel like you are always rushing around (or maybe you are not but think you should) read this. You might want to change how much you have on your plate and your child's plate each and every day. Really, just read it.
