Welcome to Lizard Motel: Children, Stories, and the Mystery of Making Things Up
|
| | | "Only a reader as attuned to realism as Feinberg could have puzzled out so nuanced a defense of imagination in children"s lives."
--Laura Miller, New York Times Book Review
"Fresh and wonderfully readable, this quirky book is perfect for parents eager to cultivate their kids" fantasy lives and foster a passion for literature."
--Michelle Green, People magazine
"Feinberg"s ideas should become part of our cultural dialogue on the needs of children."
Mary Pipher, author of Reviving Ophelia and The Shelter of Each Other
"With this book, Barbara Feinberg has created something quite extraordinary: a profound and penetrating critique that unfolds like a mystery. Pursuing her own sense that something is wrong in the schoolhouse, Welcome to Lizard Motel identifies a herd of dangerously sacred cows--and slaughters them, one by one."
Noelle Oxenhandler, author of The Eros of Parenthood
"The implications of this small book are quite large. Parents will want to read it, as will writers, publishers and educators."
--Publishers Weekly, starred review
