Experience the world through the eyes of children! Go back to a time of angelic innocence, delighting in the uncensored first words and ideas of "Ammie" and "Tristy." Journaled nightly by their mom from the time they began to speak until they reached about the age of seven, she later turned their reflections into poems. Their amusing (and often surprising) words offer unique explanations, unexpected questions, provocative opinions, creative solutions, and loving emotions-addressing a host of topics of special interest to little ones, including the difference between outer space and heaven, the true identity of Santa Claus, how to prevent child abduction and alcoholism, why girls know best and spiders make great pets, and how much they love their mother, grandparents-and their dog! Taken as a collection, The World According to Ammie and Tristy: Angelic reflections of my daughters provides a humorous, inspirational, and insightful look at the world of children, with implications for early childhood education, socialization, and parenting. Enjoy the journey!
