Why You Should Read This Book
Building Cathedrals Not Walls is a thoughtfully arranged collection of Maren Schmidt's award-winning column, Kids Talk. Each essay is an easy-to-read stand alone article about child development, parenting or teaching. Each themed section contains about a dozen meaningful essays that mix anecdotal real life stories, references to current schools of thought and high-quality practical advice.

Inspirational! This book is a real find. It is full of practical advice! Each essay is short but contains significant food for thought and or discussion.

As Head of School at Lakeland Academy in Union Valley, Texas, I suggest that all school administrators have this little book of wisdom on the shelf to share with parents and teachers. Maren Schmidt gently reminds us in her essays that knowing and guiding the child is the most valuable work God would have us undertake.
