Praise for Big Truths: "As parents, we want our children to feel safe and loved. But how do we do this and prepare them for the real world? Big Truths offers simple advice: talk about the truth. This book is a timely meditation on humanity. As a psychologist, I believe that honest discourse will help to build resilience in children, preparing them to appreciate THIS moment in all of its’ beauty and complexity. I imagine the meaningful conversations that will arise between parents and children upon reading Big Truths. And, once in memory, these wise truths can be harnessed by children through their teens into adulthood when they need it most." —Lila Davachi Professor of Psychology Columbia University New York, NY
