In her most recent book The Art, Heart and Science of Bringing Up a Child, educational scientist Dr. Austeja Landsbergiene shares the insight, knowledge, and experience she has gained as a mother of four working in the education system for more than two decades, interacting with other parents and constantly juggling professional and maternal roles. Raised with a conviction that we learn and should be learning our entire lives, that we should accumulate different experiences, travel as much as possible, read, constantly expand our limits, and, above all, keep dreaming, Dr. Landsbergiene hopes that The Art, Heart and Science of Bringing Up a Child in the 21st Century will help parents answer at least some of their infinite questions that are sure to arise. The book covers nearly 100 topics of interest to parents and teachers of first year students-how to teach your child to read, how to solve conflicts with classmates or siblings, how to teach children to have more responsibilities at home, how to cope as parents with the growing pressure of raising a successful child, and how not to let the basic role of parenthood drive you crazy-and is sprinkled with authentic stories from Dr. Landsbergiene's own life as a parent and educator, featuring insightful quotes from children aged six to eight on responsibility, financial education, and other topics.
