About the Author:
Hettie Brittz is a South African–born author, international speaker, and a foremost voice in parenting advice and personality styles. She is the author of "(un)Natural Mom," the developer of the Evergreen Parenting Course, and the co-developer of Tall Trees Profiles. She heads up Tall Trees Consulting (USA).
My Take:
I was really impressed with the analogy in this book and what Hettie had to say about bringing up our children. Hettie uses four types of trees to describe each child's natural traits. She begins by using her gardening experience and how each seed needs a certain type of soil and nutrients. She talks about how it's important to study and learn about each type of plant just as we need to learn about our children and what type of environment they need to grow. She has a section for each personality type (tree type).
I think this book is a great asset to parenting. Hettie shares some of her experience both positive and negative. I have personally learned quite a bit from it, and look forward to putting some of the ideas into practice. It can be read all the way through and then re-read to reinforce the parts that you want to use.
