In Johann Christoph Arnold's "Their Name Is Today, Reclaiming Childhood", she focuses on the difficulties young ones experience in growing up too fast. Play is so important that she devotes an entire chapter on this subject, She also addresses the facts that perhaps there would be less violence if parents would put their children at the top of their priorities. This book gets the reader thinking, hopefully before it is too late. By spending quality time with our children and by putting our love for them into action, we may never have to experience the problems of violence and suicide once they become adults. Somehow the media has twisted the definition of childhood by forcing kids to participate in areas that they are not ready to master. Sadly, our society has the very young worried about whether they are sexy enough. The young people today know things I was unaware of until I became an adult. This book is a resolve for parents everywhere wanting to change the tide of things by offering tips and ideas on how to bring childhood back. I was given the opportunity to rate this book for Handlebar Bloggers.

Arnold's "Rich In Years" Guarantee's We Have Much to Look Forward To
"Rich in Years" by Johann Christoph Arnold came to me at the perfect time. It would be my father's 84th birthday which I was grieving over because he had been gone for sixteen years. My tears perpetuated waves of memories of all my loved ones that I have lost while growing older. These 'golden years' have taken much for me to adjust to. The spiritual insight and sensitive writings of this stellar book have helped me take a more positive, productive look on aging. "Rich In Years" addresses the many changes senior citizen's face such as the empty nest syndrome; retirement; unforeseen sickness and how to cope with these difficulties and still find joy and purpose. I am thrilled that I had the wonderful opportunity to review this book for Handlebar in exchange for my thoughts. It was a great blessing~
