Sculpting Angels


Book Description

All parents wish that their children grow up to lead a vibrant, creative and innovative life. The question is - what should parents do to make this wish come true? This book answers the question. The book contains thirty-three simple yet profound thoughts for parents to reflect on. The thought could be a helpful principle to follow, a method to practise, or a value to abide by. Parenting and nurturing creativity are skills, which are honed with practice. Therefore, each of the thirty-three chapters in the book describes an activity for the family to carry out and put into practice and adopt the idea in the home. The book is a culture-free work and is of value to any discerning parent who is keen for the blossoming of creativity in their children.
