Priceless Message for Parents

Revisado: 09-28-21

My family has been fortunate enough to experience the School for Young Children first hand throughout the preschool years of both of our sons. Heather's book stays true to the SYC philosophy and the narration adds to the modeling of examples in this book. If you are someone who wants to honor your kiddos, model healthy attachment and emotional regulation as well as open communication, this book is for you!!! I can't recommend this book enough. It's been over a decade since my kids were at SYC and this early childhood approach has is still yielding positive results for our kids!

Beautiful story of the power of women

Revisado: 09-02-21

There were a few parts that felt a little inaccurate to the time and place but all and all, this was a very compelling story. As a woman, it felt validating to here a story about Jesus that explored what sort of intimate relationships he may have had and the equality and respect he likely would have had with the women in his life. The main character honors the value of the feminine aspects of a higher power, not as a threat to the masculine God but as part of the same whole that is often undervalued. The narrator was enjoyable to listen to as well and this added to the books resonance.

Good narration.

Revisado: 07-03-21

The story was okay. It seemed to have a lot of red herrings that didn't get tied up with very interesting explanations by the end.

Awkwardly worded and difficult to follow

Revisado: 07-02-21

I couldn't finish this book. The wording was so strange that I couldn't understand what the author was trying to say. It sounds like it was written by someone who does speak English fluently; that or there is some glitch with a robotic narrator. I really don't know how this got all the 5 ratings. It makes me wonder if Audible faked the reviews.

good nuggets of wisdom

Revisado: 06-10-21

There are gems of wisdom throughout this talk. The examples seem kind of antiquated and stereotypical but if the reader can put that aside, there is very insightful information from someone with both personal and professional experience with long term committed relationships. Part 3 was a little cringy but stick with it bc Part 4 is really interesting!

I really enjoyed this book. The narrator's voice and style of reading was easy to follow and kept my interest. The character development and insights by the author were endearing and heartwarming.

This was a lovely story with beautiful narration. I listened to it twice to absorb all the details but found it just as interesting the second time around.

Not a fan

Revisado: 05-04-21

In all honesty, I couldn't get through it. The narration was syrupy and the story was not interesting. Also, there was a part were the main character references a "hermaphroditic" statue and refers to it as disgusting- so insensitive. In another part, a dark-skinned female slave who had presumably impregnated by rape, is spoken of as running away and "abandoning" her child with no concern for how she was being treated.

Truly inspiring

Revisado: 05-13-19

I really appreciated Brene's honesty about her own struggles. It is also refreshing to hear someone's take on life that are grounded in actual data. I highly recommend this book and everything else I've come across by Brene Brown. What a gift!
