Congratulations to the five winners of the book giveaway on Goodreads who woke up this morning to find they'd be receiving a free copy of The Approximate Parent: Discovering the Strategies That Work with Your Teenager.
The books were mailed out bright and early Saturday, so winners should be receiving their copies this week. Thank you to everyone who participated and added the book to your "to read" shelf on Goodreads.
The Approximate Parent is an important and timely book on parenting adolescents, as one of the first books to written about how to understand your specific teen's development, not about how to understand the mythical, "generic" adolescent. Ultimately, it's about making you the expert, not about making you dependent upon the expertise of the author.
Giveaway winners (and everyone else) are welcome and invited to leave reviews of the book as soon as they've recovered from reading about teenagers in America, and how to best work with their particular teen.
