Roots & Wings: Cultures of Family & Community

As we create and live in the cultures of family and community, we share values and create a culture as we live, breathe, eat, and teach through our living experiences.

I am on a theme I know … another rave, but beloved storyteller Patricia Polacco again brings her Ukrainian heritage alive in her newest book, A Sea of Gold.  This is an intergenerational story of family love and the traditions of the Ukrainian people and her family community. So fitting for this time for a bit older listener and reader, from middle readers to adults.

As I contemplated this story, another newsletter popped up and I thought it was applicable to the theme.  A colleague of mine, Maren Schmidt, has a fantastic website and webinar channel  for parents with quick links on topics that give some great parenting tips, such as Teaching Your Children Values.

Enjoy!
