Reader comments
This book gave me a lot of inspiration. It discussed many aspects such as study, life, spirit, character, love, and pursuit. It gave me some new cognitions and ideas, and of course it greatly comforted my soul.
This book is like a wise man chatting with you, sharing true words about children's growth. I was deeply inspired by the stories and ideas in the book, and I especially liked the parts about developing children's personalities and interests. It made me understand that children's growth takes time and we cannot rush. As the book says, only by "slowing down" can you better appreciate the process of growth. This book not only taught me the wisdom of education, but also made me face the growth of my children more calmly.
Every child is a free individual, and parents just create an environment for them to grow freely.
It is a gentle and healing book for parents and children that I read a long time ago. Every word is about parents' deep affection for each individual. They are not frivolous or utilitarian. They hope that their children will grow up slowly, be safe and smooth, and be comfortable and calm.
A very wise book
Simple and honest words express the feelings and experiences of being a parent for the first time.
