Bending Twigs comes as a 'surprise package' for couples embarking upon parenting or for persons who expect to be working with children. In this regard, it provides snapshots of what might be going through the minds of the children you are engaging as well as the minds of their peers. This book might cause you to relax, anticipate, and embrace the ever-present humor that was not spelled out in the job description. This book will be a 'lifesaver' for parents, employees, and volunteers who are deep in the trenches of working with children and need a lighthouse to assure them that they are making headway on the journey and that land has, indeed, been sighted.
