Somewhere deep inside me where the creative child lives I question and the voice of the inner child asks. "In our noble efforts to be "good parents", do we inundate our children with books that are either practical or attempt to teach manners or morals? And in our passion to make them good citizens of the world do forget their insatiable quest for learning that is entertaining." Could the real question be "how many of these books stifle the imagination and the curiosity and teach the values of the conventional adult world; money, power and public success?" More often than not our children simply tune these books or politely tolerate them.
The literature that my friends and I gravitated to, as children were those subversive texts that told what really matters is art, imagination and truth. I rode the covers of the "Black Stallion", lived on the island with Robinson Crusoe and fought every fight with "Tom Sawyer". I believe the works that touch our children, such as Maurice Sedak's "Where the Wild Things Are", will endure long after pedestrian tales have gathered dust. It will be those stories that mock current assumption, spark the imagination, which encourage questioning and appeal to the rebellious and curious child within us all. It is our only hope to create energy for change.
Most people would be happy if life was a little less painful. To me that isn't acceptable. We need to find ways, attitudes and philosophy toward life that insures it to be more joyful and fulfilling. We need values and ideals expressed in a way that is palatable to children. Stories that leave them begging for seconds and yet inspire the qualities they need in order grow, survive and experience life in the most joyful and least painful way possible.
This is the motivation, spirit and philosophy in which the "One To Grow On! "Series of children stories was created. I know these stories have made an undeniable difference in the lives of many children. They teach children how to create rather than how to destroy. They teach honesty, self esteem responsibility and cooperation. They inspire young imaginations and fuel the desire for success. The stories deal with all these elements in a way that every child will discover the perfect self within, giving him or her the determination to approach life with an attitude that is indicative of success.
