Book Review – Knights in Training

Since it is so likely that our [children] will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage. – CS Lewis

Knights in training is one of the best “parenting” books I’ve ever read!

It’s the first parenting book I’ve ever “savored”…

… the first one I plan to read over and over again …

… and the first time I’ve loved a book so much that I reached out to thank the author for writing it!

(Can you tell I like it?)

This book was filled with tons of practical ideas and inspiration in my journey in raising boys who are honorable, courageous and compassionate.

Here’s a quote from the book that sums up why I love this book!

“We need to start training them now to be ready to take the reins of leadership – to live with integrity, to think outside of themselves, and to value the people around them. We need boys who will use their strength for the protection of others rather than to prey on others. With power and strength comes great responsibility.”

I’m grateful for men and women who use their voices to inspire, challenge and teach us! Heather Haupt is one of those voices for me!

If you are a parent or grandparent – get this book!

Have you read it? If so, leave me a comment and tell me what you liked most!

    I can’t wait to buy this book even though my son is older. Do you know if they have a version similar for girls?
