"If you do everything with the feeling of happiness, there is no task
too difficult to perform. A human mind is like a parachute, always keep
open and allow the great ideas to enter - after all, it's work a worship
and creativity, a step towards nourishing your talents. So enjoy life,
enjoy all that you do." And here I am - enjoying all that I do:-)

Review of Guardian of Angels By Smita Girish
Dani
"Guardian of Angels" is a narration of great power and
frequent intriguing instances in which, Ilaxi Patel, the Author brings
vividly to life a whole cross section of 21st century parents and
grandparent's, trials and tribulations of the endless battles to
overcome the most important penetrating examination of rearing children
in a very conducive environment and molding them to be good, wholesome,
confident, obedient and well mannered citizens.
Reading and digesting this invaluable material will not only help the
parents in striking a balance between "dos and don'ts " for
the challenges faced by the children in their formative years, but pave
a smooth zest for life, which would in the end sustain it's quest for
fulfillment and happiness.
The Authors commitment and determination has paid off in this extensive
research of this concise guide to parenting.

I got a copy of my Book Review by Ravindra Thakore which appeared in a local Gujarati Daily,
'Jansatta-Loksatta' Editions, Ahmedabad
and Baroda. I had completely missed this and the copy was sent to me
later. I gather, many will not understand the Gujarati language, yet
here it is above (wysiwyg). The title says, 'Every Parents should read
this Book' mentioning thereby, the book contents too.)
Other reviews:

Kids
computing is like "electronically sugar-coated
'learning' that may spoil children's appetite for the main
course." Encouraging children to "learn" by flitting about
in a colorful multimedia world is a recipe for a
disorganized and undisciplined mind. Kids should be
encouraged to blossom and flower in a free atmosphere. Their
development should be in their own capacities. Barry
Sanders, Professor at Pitzer college, US says "good readers
grow out of good recites and good speakers." Then, as a
child matures, his success in reading and writing nurtures
his "innermost, intimate guide, the self." So any threat to
language and literacy may limit children's "inner voice" -
their capacity to tell themselves stories and talks
themselves through academic or other problems. Those who
place their faith in technology to solve the problems of
education should look more deeply into the needs of
children. The renewal of education requires personal
attention to students from good teachers and active parents,
strongly supported by their communities. It requires
commitment to developmentally appropriate education and
attention to the full range of children's real, low-tech
needs -- physical, emotional, social, and intellectual
development.
So,
Beware, Be Aware, Brainstorm to activate the mind cells
