‘Engagingly written and filled with interesting detail’ SUNDAY TIMES
A revealing portrait of how families strive to cope with the changing world of parenting and childhood, as well as new solutions. The pressure for children to enter the best schools and universities or to develop their talents has become more intense than ever. In Carl Honoré's masterpiece, which is a continuation of IN PRAISE OF SLOW, there is a passionate plea to parents and teachers to allow children to grow up at a slower pace. Honoré takes us around the world in search of a new formula for parenting and childhood, talking to experts and examining recent research on the problems faced by parents, teachers, and children in order to find the best solutions. 'Slow parenting' will benefit both children and parents, creating happier children and calmer parents.
