About this title

From Library Journal:

Teaching children to love may seem like a contradiction in terms, but Childre, founder of the Institute for Heart Math in Boulder, Colorado, believes that it is not only possible but necessary. A follow-up to his A Parenting Manual: Heart Hope for the Family (Planetary, 1995), this how-to book helps implement his philosophy. The oversized pages are filled with 80 activities to help children from one to 20 years old learn to be loving people. While the intention may be worthy, the carry-through is not. The activities are contrived and gimmicky, using techniques called Freeze Frame, Captain Cut-Thru, and Heart Tools. Dull, cartoonlike black-and-white pictures permeate the book. Not recommended.?Linda Beck, Indian Valley P.L., Telford, Pa.
