Book Reviews of How to be a Hero to Your Kids
Book Review: Best single book on parenting
Summary: 5 Stars
Reading this book when it was first published 15 years ago, I thought it was sooo good that I developed an entire class based on its outline. I've taught that class at my home church now, since 1993, to hundreds of people. And I've read a lot more books on Christian parenting since then too.
This book remains the single best parenting guide I have read. There are LOTS of terrific authors out there, including Dobson, Rainey, Smalley, etc. But this book compartmentalizes an easy-to-remember approach to parenting in the "6 A's of Positive (Biblical) Parenting" which anyone can remember.
With 4 kids myself, I cannot remember any situation we've faced in which I was unable to effectively address things using one or more of the 6 A's explained in this book. That's what makes it so valuable - you can actually remember the concepts and techniques and how to apply them.
The book is full of personal examples from the authors' live which will make you laugh and bring a tear or two. It's a great, personal, volume chock full of practical advice and FUN. You'll love reading it and the pages will fly past.
Now that it's out of print, get yourself a used copy from a reputable seller!
