Very informative! The resources where very useful as well!!! I have reread it 3 times now!

Inspiring for raising children and their values

Positive thinking and leading by examples are the things I took during the listening. Meanwhile, the book is concise and short, and read by the author, the way which enhances my attachment to the author and her ideas.
I came to listen to this book as Harvard Professor Tal highly recommended the author. It deserves the recommendation.
Thank you both, Marva and Tal.
