It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach Us

In celebration of the 10th ann¿y. of ¿It Takes a Village,¿ this ed. includes a new Intro. by Sen. Clinton. A decade ago, then First Lady Hillary Clinton chronicled her quest to help make our society into the kind of village that enables children to become smart, able, resilient adults. How children develop & what they need to succeed are inextricably entwined with the society in which they live & how well it sustains & supports its families & individuals. She reflects on how our village has changed over the last decade -- from the impact of the Internet to new research in early child develop. & educ. She discusses issues of increasing concern -- security, the environ., the nat. debt -- & looks at where we have made progress & where there is still work to be done. Photos.
