Celebrate the wisdom of the sandbox the witty, innocent, surprising, and yet completely sensible things that kids say and do. A little book with a big heart, "Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me" combines deceptively simple life lessons with engaging images that together not only offer insight but inspire joy. Kids see the world in a way that adults don t, so glimpsing life through a child s eyes offers a fresh and often funny perspective. Kids encourage us to be open-minded: "There are a lot of different ways to get to the top of the jungle gym." To be fearless: "Jump right in or you may change your mind about swimming."
