Wow. This is the book I've been waiting for!
“Listen” captures the heart and soul of Patty Wipfler's
groundbreaking work with parents and families.
This remarkable book describes the tools of Hand in Hand Parenting
with clarity, and then applies them with thoughtfulness and
compassion to the real struggles of parents.
I am thrilled about “Listen” for the thousands of people
who–like me–have had a taste of these ideas already
and have been itching for this book. I'm even more thrilled for
those of you who are discovering these tools for the first time.
You are in for an incredibly rewarding adventure.~ Dr. Lawrence Cohen, author of Playful Parenting,
The Art of Roughhousing, and The Opposite of Worry.
