Tolerance, respect, compassion and other values start at home, in healthy, strong relationships between the generations.

These stories provide practical, insightful tips for parents and grandparents looking to strengthen their families and raise caring, confident, successful children. This book harnesses the power of storytelling to inspire and teach while also entertaining readers.
