Book Overview
Parenting can be such an overwhelming job that it's easy to lose track of where you stand on some of the more controversial subjects at the playground (What if my kid likes to rough house--isn't this ok as long as no one gets hurt? And what if my kid just doesn't feel like sharing?). In this inspiring and enlightening book, Heather Shumaker describes her quest to nail down "the rules" to raising smart, sensitive, and self-sufficient kids. Drawing on her own experiences as the mother of two small children, as well as on the work of child psychologists, pediatricians, educators and so on, in this book Shumaker gets to the heart of the matter on a host of important questions.

Rated 5 starsWell done
I’m a fan of Lisa Scottoline and for me, this book exceeded expectations. It’s written from multiple POV’s, but essentially boils down to a group of teenage kids that are all involved in the death of a friend. The boy’s death draws a wedge in their relationships but ties them together for decades. I read other reviews that thought it was too unbelievable, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book!
