Over the weekend my blogging friend Joy was recommending the book "The Weapons of Mass Instruction." By John Taylor Gatto. Another friend of ours, Eileen ,wanted to read it along with her and then I said, "Can I come too?"
From this very simple Facebook conversation was born the Mindful Parenting Book Club. I'd be so happy to see you join us and please invite anyone else you think might enjoy it.
Here's some more information.
