AUTHOR NOTE = Goldie Hahn is a successful actor and public school education advocate and Wendy Holden is an education reformer.

SUMMARY = Practical, timely, relevant, and inspiring, the book is Goldie Hawn’s gift to parents who want to help their children learn better and live happier lives. The book shows parents how to teach their children to help themselves be happy.

BOOK DESCRIPTION = Inspired by the revolutionary “MindUP” program (developed under the auspices of the Hawn Foundation), the book offers easy-to-grasp insights from current behavioral, psychological, and neurological studies to show how our thoughts, emotions, and actions — including our ability to focus, manage stress, and learn — are all exquisitely interconnected.

The book presents simple and practical ways to develop mindfulness in children and parents alike, and shares Goldie’s own heartfelt experiences with the challenges and joys of parenting.
