Bravo!

As an expert on creativity, I am very excited about this book as it easily guides parents into nurturing parenting by teaching them to honor the individuality of each child and encourage unique self-expression. By fortifying a child's self-esteem and acknowledging their natural gifts and abilities, parents can have a powerful impact on this next generation of "litle souls" ensuring that they become who they are truly meant to be.

Wonderous and Inspiring --I'm Impressed!

This book caught me by surprise, with the warmth that infuses its writing, the penetrating insightfulness of its principles, and the ability to integrate its ideas into the everydayness of life. It elevated my focus from the intensity of life's details to touch base with matters of the heart. I began to reflect with renewed clarity on the sense of family and values that I impart daily to my children ages 5 and 7. While other books out there have tried to copy this message, this book clearly has become the classic in its field. What a tremendous service to us moms!

Children's Spiritual Development - Creating a Better World

Giving children the best possible start in life includes fostering their spiritual development. In our fast paced, result-driven world, our emotional and spiritual needs can be overlooked. The principles highlighted in this book give invaluable guidance for parents wishing to assist their children in developing values and coping skills that will take them through the challenges of life. As a therapist, I am happy to recommend this book to my clients who are parents. The best legacy we can leave to our children is a world that is gentler and more compassionate. The only route is through individual accountability - this book is an instrument to that end.

10 Principals for Spiritual Parenting is Priceless!

Mimi Doe and Marsha Walch's book 10 Principals for Spiritual Parenting is Priceless. Last night my children and I read the adult affirmations and the child's affirmations. We were moved and I personally felt a shift inside to a better place. My six year old who reads very well read some parts of the book to me. I could tell she liked and absorbed what she read. This book is an excellent tool for parents and children.Steve Viglione author, My Priceless Prayerbook, My Priceless Prayerbook, New Thought Edition
