Overview

In this collection of 12 stories the author depicts scenes from the lives of children, families and adults, dealing with topics and events which are common to many households and families around the world, and which leave lasting marks on our lives. We meet children and families struggling with various problems - from illnesses, dyslexia, autism, the loss of a loved one, domestic abuse and bullying, to the problem of facing ourselves and our own weaknesses. Through these simple stories, with which we can all identify, we recognise people and situations we ourselves may be going through or they might be happening to someone we know. The language of the stories is simple, non-scientific, and the events are based on the author's long-term experience of working with various age groups. We are lead into each story through a short, inspiring quote by the author. Each story ends with a small exercise, like a brief meditation called Place to myself; its goal is to apply what we learned from the story to something positive and applicable in our lives. These are not children's stories, but stories about children and adults, stemming from the author's experiences and dreams/nightmares. The stories aim to reach parents and educators, i.e. any adult working with children and for the good of children and families.
