LETTERS-to-My-CHILDREN

Introducing - Parents talk to their children every day, whispering (or texting)

endearments, words of encouragement, and even reproachments.

But it is rare in these modern, click-and-you’re-gone times for busy

moms and dads to actually sit down and write a letter.

In this book, 35 writers, artists, media personalities, celebrities,

and businessmen take the time to put down their loving wishes for

their children in a collection of very personal letters. At their core,

they are simply mothers and fathers, and like all parents, they only

want the best for their kids and believe in teaching them how to

face challenges in a world that sometimes isn’t so kind.

Letters may seem old-fashioned, but they are great for

encapsulating that magic moment when you want to capture

your thoughts for your children to read today, or many years on.

Because just a few snapshots, Facebook posts, and journal entries

later, the child is an adult, the nest is empty, and all you’re left with

are delightful and sometimes bittersweet memories of a fleeting

childhood. Letters are as powerful as the spoken word, and they live

on—stashed in little boxes beneath their beds, or tucked deep into

their grown-up hearts.
