Reading Light: Wisdom for Today's Children

By REV Stephanie Denise

Raising and guiding children in today's world requires more than rules, routines, and report cards. It requires wisdom, compassion, and the ability to truly see the hearts of the children we serve. In Reading Light: Wisdom for Today's Children, Reverend Stephanie Denise draws from more than 25 years in the California classroom to offer powerful insight for parents, teachers, and community leaders committed to nurturing the next generation.

Blending real-life classroom experience with faith-centered encouragement, this book explores the critical years between ages eight and twelve-when children stand on the threshold between childhood and adolescence. With practical strategies, heartfelt reflections, and research-informed approaches, Stephanie reveals how strong relationships, gratitude, resilience, and purpose can transform the educational journey.

- Ways to support exceptional students as they transition from elementary to middle school
