ten-waysOur free read this week is Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child by Anthony Esolen. In this creative and entertaining book, Esolen explains how childhood is now marked by play dates, soccer practice, day care, political correctness, drudgery, television, video games, constant supervision, and endless distractions, but these contemporary trends restrict the rich imaginations of children. Esolen illustrates alternatives to these problems by telling stories from his childhood and reclaiming traditional wisdom. Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child is a compelling and entertaining read for all seeking to rescue the imagination from the banality of contemporary culture.
