If you only read one book on parenting, I strongly urge you to read Attached at the Heart. Not only is it a brilliant guide for parents, but also for educators who are looking to strengthen their teaching practices and relationships with their students.
Drawing from cultures around the world and based on parenting practices that have been followed for hundreds of years, it is overflowing with valuable, well-researched information. It takes the pressure off trying to be the perfect parent who raises the perfect child and encourages the reader to pay close attention to the delicate, natural relationship between parent and baby.
It also provides parents with helpful information about how to deal with the challenging toddler phase right through to reclaiming important family time by having meals together with older children. By nurturing children and providing them with frequent feedback as they try new things, we can create a happier society.
