The book effectively, compassionately, lovingly and wisely lays out a path that will build great bonds with your grandchildren and strengthen all three generations involved with grandparenting–the grandparents, parents and the newest ones–and likely all their in-laws! I first met the author at an overnight summer camp when I was a counselor-in-training in 1965. The first lesson he taught, walking in the woods with him one sunny afternoon, was to leave every natural place you enjoy in better shape than when you found it–perhaps pick up some trash, clear some brush, find a steppingstone where one is needed, etc.. The book is every bit as thoughtful and methodical as that life lesson was. This man conveys a distillation of his extraordinary life of service that will benefit anyone who takes the time to read the book and apply what they can of its teaching.
In the book the Grandest Love, Jerry Witkovsky helps grandparents create lasting connections with their grandchildren, leaving behind a legacy. Not only is this book applicable to grandparents, but for parents looking to increase their connection/relationship with their children. The book includes worksheets, exercises, and personal stories that anyone can relate to. I highly recommend it to any parents or grandparents looking to increase their family connection, especially for those who may live long distance.
This is a book about the love of a grandparent for his grandchildren. It contains numerous stories and anecdotes. I truly enjoyed reading them. The author also describes techniques he has developed for improving communication within one's family. Be prepared to keep notes. I was left with the message that our love for our family is our grandest love.
Jerry Witkovsky has written a book which highlights the warm and wonderful relationships which an bring together three generationsof a family. He emphasizes the often over-looked role that grandparents can play in the lives of their grandchildren, and sets down simple and thoughtful ways to enliven those relationships. His enthusiasm is very clear through out the book. His children and grand children should be very pround of what he has written.Mike Palatnik
