by Janusz Korczak & Sandra Joseph
Born in Poland in 1878, educator, physician, and legendary child advocate Janusz Korczak believed that simply understanding children is the key to being able to take care of them. It’s a basic premise too often overlooked.
This collection of one hundred quotations and passages from Korczak's writings provides valuable advice on how to take care of, respect, and love every child.
In an inviting gift-book format, this is a heartfelt and helpful reminder of who we were as children and who we might become as parents.
"Starred Review. In this perfect inspirational gift book, Korczak reminds readers that children are basically honest, so if they don't answer our questions, that's also an answer; rather than lie, they're choosing silence." - Publishers Weekly.
"A work of rare depth and beauty. Thank you for making available the words of a true giant of insight and compassion." - Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, chief rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the British Commonwealth.
"Korczak's words resonate across the years and have amazing modern-day relevance." - Jim Harding, director of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
