Book Recommendations

Looking for something to read?  Here are the two best child-related books I've read recently.

NurtureShock: New Thinking About Children
This book covers topics such as Praise, Race, Sleep and many others relevant to our lives as parents.  NurtureShock is completely research-based, but very readable.


How Kids Succeed:  The Power of Grit, Curiosity and the Hidden Power of Character
This is the book we (the Chapman staff) based our Character Education work on this year.  It, too, is very readable research.  It conveys the value of character education and the impact it can have on learning.

Happy Reading!
