Katie really cares about Justin, the cute two-year-old she baby-sits. But she can’t help but notice the changes in him. He’s quieter now, and he sometimes calls himself a “bad boy.” Then Katie starts to notice bruises on Justin. She explains them away—until the day when she has to face the possibilities and make a very difficult decision. Who will believe what she suspects? What if she’s wrong?

By Lois Young-Tulin
Think about it. In order to be grandmothers we once had to be mothers. After giving birth, we, as the mothers, were responsible for our baby's/child's well being. As grandmothers, on the other hand, we have choices. Our roles are open for interpretation and conscious choices. When I became a grandmother, and even when my daughters-in-law were pregnant, I made a conscious decision to be an involved grandmother, one of the caretakers or a Granny-Nanny. I was sure that helping out and taking care of a baby would be easy like getting back on a bicycle after a twenty-year lapse. Oh, how wrong I was. There are new rules, new products, new findings and plenty of taboos. How did my three children ever survive their hazardous childhoods? Parenting rules have gone through some serious revisions since author Lois Young-Tulin raised her kids. In her helpful guide, The Granny Nanny, Young-Tulin offers a unique opportunity for today's grandmas to hone their skills and learn the twenty principles for successful grandmothering in a modern world.

T he insight and humor of the children is revealed quite cleverly. The author’s love for children comes through strongly as you read the collection. This is a one of a kind work, very unique and sometimes hilarious. Also contains many craft ideas and helpful hints for preschool teachers and/or parents. Working with children is the most rewarding thing I have ever done. These years have been a very educational experience. If I planted one seed along the way, I feel I have done my part. The title, “Lit’l Bit,” was a nickname from years ago. One day I couldn’t reach something on a shelf, and I said, “I’m not big enough.” My husband replied, “Oh, you’re such a little bit,” and the name stuck.

This book is not about diseases, growth and development, or immunizations. This book is about childhood behavior, rules to follow, discipline and punishment. The author feels that children learn mainly by mistakes. Let your child pay the consequences, not you. Show continuing love but don’t bail him out of trouble. Love the child but not his misbehavior at the time. Parents nearly always set the example (good or bad) that their children follow (going to church, being responsible, but also smoking and drinking). The fruit does not fall far from the tree.

How does a Catholic mother instill the Faith in her children? How does she deal with issues of education and discipline, how does she maintain her own faith-and hold her family together-in the face of life's routine or unexpected challenges? To answer these questions, editor Maura Koulik has gathered the stories of twelve Catholic mothers in this faith affirming collection, The Art of Catholic Mothering. With grace, honesty and humor, these mothers tell of their struggles, both the everyday and the extraordinary. They write about gathering their children for the family rosary, persevering when money and support are scarce, finding solid Catholic education and guidance for their families, surviving personal tragedies and, most of all, about living a truly Catholic life in post-Vatican II times. The experiences of these women will move, awe and inspire readers. Not just for mothers, this book is important reading for any woman who hopes someday to raise children in the Faith, and for any husband who is determined to place the Church at the center of their lives. Within these stories the reader will find support and comfort, as only those who have already lived the vocation of Catholic motherhood can give.

By Caroline Thompson
As a young mother, Caroline Arit O. Thompson was so naïve and frustrated about childrearing that she would start each day crying. Her own parents raised her with stability, nourishment, and security-and made it look effortless. Thompson was unaware of the overwhelming work, sacrifice, and investment involved in parenting. Today Thompson is a confident, seasoned mother of two, eager to warm and encourage parents of all ages with the hope, comfort, and inspiration they need to mold their children for success. She advises us to recognize the tremendous blessing and privilege of parenthood and to look, as she does, to biblical principles and to faith in God for the guidance, direction, and strength to endure the many challenges of positive parenting. By "training up" our children with priceless love and values, and by making quality time to teach, nourish, and discipline, says Thompson, we fuel their passion to excel and enhance their sense of belonging and identity. The children reciprocate with gratitude, hard work, respect, affection, and more. Thompson knows that parenting is no small task. But she also knows that with God's grace, we can set the lives of tomorrow's leaders on the right path.
