The Path of Tenderness for a Child’s Sake features real-life stories based on the lives of children of war in Liberia. The tales take us through the struggles of broken dreams, family, friendships, and love. Dreams do come true, four-year-old Maddy believed. But when darkness and betrayal took over her world, her shooting star disappeared and her dreams melted away. Her beautiful childhood wishes disappeared and she began to battle the many challenges ahead. The voice of an old friend reminded her, “Dreams do come true to those who make their wishes deep within their hearts.” “As we waited for our situation to improve so we could return home, we were discouraged to find that it actually got worse. Every night, people continued to cross the border to escape the war, and many settled in our village. They were mostly all women and children. From the newcomers, we heard Liberia was occupied by rebels who were going from house to house, killing all the soldiers. Although we never received any word, I was terrified for my father.”

They're hallmarks of childhood. The endless "why" questions. The desire to touch and taste everything. The curiosity and the observations. It can't be denied-children have an inherent desire to know. Teachers and parents can either encourage this natural inquisitiveness or squelch it. There is joy in the classroom when children learn-not to take a test, not to get a grade, not to compete with each other, and not to please their parents or their teachers-but because they want to know about the world around them! Both Christian educators and parents will find proven help in creating a positive learning atmosphere through methods pioneered by Charlotte Mason that show how to develop a child's natural love of learning. The professional educators, administrators, and Mason supporters contributing to this volume give useful applications that work in a variety of educational settings, from Christian schools to homeschools. A practical follow-up to Crossway's For the Children's Sake, this book follows a tradition of giving serious thought to what education is, so that children will be learning for life and for everlasting life.
