The Blessing of a Skinned Knee - audio book

"Her thoughtful observations consistently illuminate and reassure.
Impassioned, lyrical, and eminently practical, this inspiring volume is a real treasure."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Although she clearly draws on Jewish teachings, as well as on her psychology training, much of her wisdom is applicable to families of all faiths."--Library Journal

All parents hope their child will be self-reliant, optimistic, and well mannered, but this has become particularly challenging in our current culture. Clinical psychologist and Jewish educator Wendy Mogel distills the ancient teachings of the Torah, the Talmud, important Jewish thinkers, and contemporary psychological insights into nine blessings that address key parenting issues.

She covers realistic expectations for each child, respect for adults, chores, mealtime battles, coping with frustration, developing independence and self-control, and resisting over-scheduling and over-indulgence.

The Blessing of a Skinned Knee guides us toward effective, enlightened parenting in an increasingly speedy, material, and competitive age.

Not to be missed

Skye from The Hague - 28 Dec 2006

The hype about Dan Brown is not unfounded. I loved every minute of this audio book. The book is well written and the pace of the storyline with its twists & turns kept me riveted throughout.

As an avid reader of traditional hard copy books I was surprised how quickly I began to enjoy the full audio book experience. Set in Italy with its beautiful architecture lends itself perfectly to the audio book format where you easily become completely immersed in the storyline.

One not to be missed!
