Rescuing The Child’s Soul: Embracing our Most Extraordinary Life Stage and Dismantling the Myth of “The Terrible Twos”

As a former student advisor for children with disabilities, Marjorie Serrano learned how much developing children can be impacted by the misguided awareness of adults around them. These experiences, along with the magical blessings of motherhood, became the catalyst of this book. In it, Serrano shares her own childhood experiences as a compliment to raising her toddler daughter, Maya. She is also the voice of parents whose children have been stigmatized and hopes this book will formalize the need for a strong advocacy movement. The limitations of public and private school systems, society's misinterpreted behaviors of developing children, and the resulting stigmas and prejudice can hinder our children's evolution and development. Serrano sees these issues as opportunities to start the conversation toward positive change. Through testimonies, real-life stories, and other relevant research, Serrano will take you on a journey of great discoveries, a journey of love and gratitude for the gifts of parenting and the presence of children in our lives. Rescuing The Child's Soul: Embracing our Most Extraordinary Life Stage and Dismantling the Myth of "The Terrible Twos" is a magical journey into a child's heart and an inspiring work of literature, worthy of careful reflection. It is a journey that can change your perspective of how adults view developing young minds and help you connect with children around you in profound and meaningful ways.
