Attached at the Heart: 8 Proven Parenting Principles for Raising Connected and Compassionate Children
by Barbara Nicholson and Lysa Parker

(Reviewed by Columbia Center's Ann Grauer)

Nicholson and Parker have created a book that speaks to parents today. It begins with trusting your baby to tell you who he/she is. This is one of the most important — and most often overlooked — foundations of parenting. It moves on to how to incorporate your new one into your family and isn't "parent-centered" or "child-centered". Rather, it's a good balance of real life and what matters. We hope you will read this comforting book and begin to find your own way of parenting your child.
