I absolutely love memoirs especially written by people from different ethnic backgrounds. I cannot believe all the high ratings! The book is incredibly boring.
I came to the US from Russia at age 34. Those 30 pages that I could last reminded me of some Russian mothers bragging to the whole world about their "geniuses" kids and their accomplishments as a result of them/mothers doing something right. A lot of exaggerations to say the least, some lies to put it straight, huge amount of mental and emotional torture on top of all.
Basically these "motivating" mothers steal away the happiest time from their kids which is supposed to be care free- childhood. Those kids may grow up to be career successful and money making individuals, but will they be happy inside?
I know Amy was doing those cruel things out of love and trying to be a great motivating mother because
I did somewhat similar motivation/abuse to my daughter myself forcing her to memorize long pieces of classic poetry in Russian at age 6 (to keep her Russian "pride and heritage"). All I feel now is remorse and shame. At one point I asked her for forgiveness (after she grew up, around age 24-25) for being so pushy and unreasonable, but she laughed it off and said she hadn't remembered any of that. I am sure she did remember (not the poetry of course but the torture of trying to memorize something that she didn't even understand), just wanted to ease my guilt. Just like Amy I truly believed at that time that a big part of being a good mother was to push, force and restrict her children. If I could only go back... I know now that the most important part of being a good mother is to give unconditional love, the best motivation for them to flourish and succeed in life.
One of the oddest books I've read lately (actually not read but tried to read). In my opinion not worth high ratings. I think one day Amy will genuinely regret her ways of "motivation". Too sad it takes time and advanced age to come to thorough realization...

As the daughter of a fierce Tiger Mother, I avoided this book for the longest time. This book was bittersweet for me. At moments it was hard to read, the stories mirroring my own experiences, albeit too close for comfort. I felt I would be doing a disservice to Amy Chua if I didn't complete this book, so I stuck with her.
Resist the negative reviews out there, a lot of people judge this book before completing it. This is a story of a woman raising her children with her best intentions. Her method worked for one daughter and it didn't for the other. Writing this book took bravery and self awareness. She didn't have to share her story, but I'm so glad she did.

I am really glad I read this book. My brother recommended it to me and this book made me realize I was too soft with my son. I was afraid to hurt his feelings or push him too much for fear I would stress him out. What I realized is that my softness was hurting him. My son was in high school when I read this book and I knew he had high academic aspirations from middle school. My pampering him was not helping him get to where I knew he wanted to be. I am still soft in a sense in comparison to the tiger mother in this book, and a tiger mother I know but I am so grateful that this book encouraged me to expect more and push my son more. He was experiencing difficulty in Geometry and then AP Chemistry. Because of this book, we moved our focus away from sports, I got him tutors and got his dad and our friends to help me push him to work harder and to expect more. He is doing much better now, and is a student at a university he wasn't sure he would be able to get into.

I'm a Japanese American mom of two children. I really enjoyed her book! I read the negative reviews and wonder if those people really read her book. Numerous times the author states about her self doubt on how she was raising her daughters and how she questioned her methods.
I'm one of those parents that has always praised my children in whatever they do and I didn't want to criticize them for fear of hurting their feelings or ruining their self esteem but Mrs Chua's book helped me to realize that is okay to sometimes demand excellence from your children! And that sometimes they need to be called out when they are not trying their best. Do I think the author is the perfect parent? Of course not, no one has all the answers but we can still learn from each other.

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2018

I bought this book on the recommendation from a friend and after reading a few chapters, and I already had enough.
I cannot get pass this woman's own complexes which were brought on by hre Chinese parentage. She studied only what she thought would please her parents, majors which require route memorization and gurantee excellent grades if you study hard enough. She failed in the corporate world and thinking that she is as gifted and adequate for the same job her husband, fails miserably at the interview realizing that she cannot hold her as high of a level of conversation as her husband's colleagues.

Then, having failed to achieve as high success as she thought that she would, she decides to write about her experience parenting her kids, the Chinese style way. After of course, in overachieving Chinese student fashion, admitting that others have beat her to writing about Chinese culture, such as Amy Tang.

Her descriptions of family's journey and parenting style are interesting. It seems to me that her and another extremely-scucessfull Chinese-American parents can owe their success to the laziness and brivery of American parenting. Contrasting what she considers such parenting success. This is the norm in Asia.

If you like to read books to analyze people's personal inefficacies and psychological shortcomings, then buy this book. If you want to read a real talented writer's book, then spend your money on books like the Joy Luck Club instead.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't take this book at face value - dig down!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 31, 2018

This is an extraordinary book; take it at face value and the author comes across as a petulant, incorrigible brat, but dig a little deeper and different layers of meaning, motivation and mood are revealed. It's probably best to read the coda at the end first, because this sets the scene quite well and gives some indication of the complexity of the work. Amy Chua agonises with herself throughout and really struggles to come to terms with her birth ethnicity and that foisted upon her by the western world, to which she has moved. Her struggle to bring up her children in many ways mirrors her own inner doubts and identity crisis. Parenting could not have been more complex.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book especially if you have a child learning music

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 8, 2020

Love this book! I had already got this book in ebook version but I got this paper version as I wanted my 8-year-old daughter to read it because she’s learning violin and it’s hard. She read it and understood and practiced more, so I’m very pleased. Also loved it because it helped my daughter to understand my Chinese heritage and traditions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Warning: sense of humour required to enjoy this book!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 23, 2014

This is a hilarious and self-deprecating account of how a woman's "type a" parenting style worked (and didn't work) with her two daughters. Beyond the amusing anecdotes, there are deeper themes of contrasting/conflicting parenting styles between cultures, and interesting insights into the strengths and weaknesses those styles have in various contexts. I found it enjoyable and thought-provoking.
The book apparently faced strong criticism in the USA for advocating domineering parenting styles, however I attribute this to a misunderstanding of the author's self-effacing humour and irony which no doubt a UK audience understands better (my humble opinion as a dual citizen!).

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Glimpse into one family's life

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 19, 2015

I really enjoyed this book. My son who is a keen and talented chess player asked me recently - why do so many of the Asian players have better grades than me? I knew the answer - the parents insist they work harder but I had no real idea quite how hard they work. I do insist my kids study at whatever they do - if they don't then they don't get to do it - music, homework, chess but I had no idea quite how much further some families go and it's clear success is proportional. This book isn't supposed to encourage Tiger-parenting but it has encouraged me to stick with my convictions that a bit of hard work is good for kids.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cleverly written

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 23, 2014

As a new parent, my daughter is 18 months, this book was very interesting. Also being born to Asian parents (Indian) I can relate to some of Lily 's experiences, also with the violin!
The book is still controversial and I think it will always remain so because how a mother raises her child is a very personal and private issue, no one can tell you how to do it, you just use trial and error unfortunately. The key issue being the fact that every child is unique!

The bestselling Scaffolding Language, Scaffolding Learning helped tens of thousands of mainstream elementary teachers ensure that their English language learners became full members of the school community with the language and content skills they needed for success. In the highly anticipated Second Edition, Pauline Gibbons updates her classic text with a multitude of practical ideas for the classroom, supported by the latest research in the field of ELL/ESL.

With clear directions and classroom tested strategies for supporting students' academic progress, Gibbons shows how the teaching of language can be integrated seamlessly with the teaching of content, and how academic achievement can be boosted without sacrificing our own vision of education to the dictates of knee-jerk accountability. Rich examples of classroom discourse illustrate exactly how the scaffolding process works, while activities to facilitate conversation and higher-level thinking put the latest research on second language learning into action.

With its first edition, ...And with a Light Touch was immediately praised for its authentic portrayal of classroom life and learning. "It's my bible for teaching young children" and "It reads like a novel," said veteran and preservice teachers alike. Those with minimal background in children's literature have found the book a godsend. Every page rings true with the voice of a caring, real-life classroom teacher-one who marvels at what young children can do if given the chance to work in daily reading and writing workshops taught with a sensitive and responsive approach.

Now, Carol Avery offers a second edition, giving more insight and examples of children and a teacher learning together. Since her first edition, Carol has worked extensively in kindergarten and second grade, has had her own fourth- and sixth-grade classrooms, and has watched three grandchildren learn to read and write. Her latest edition incorporates Carol's stories and learning from these new experiences. It also expands sections on crafting writing, phonics instruction, read-alouds, and documenting assessment, and includes an updated bibliography. At the same time, it retains its focus on these major areas, addressed in depth:

the writing process-structuring daily writing workshops and the development of young writers

the reading process-structuring daily reading workshops and learning to read without a basal reader

children's literature-incorporating children's literature into the daily life of the classroom and stimulating children's responses to literature

classroom environment and tone-organizing and managing the classroom

expanding literacy-reading and writing across the curriculum and a focus on kindergarten

assessment-documenting and reporting student progress.
Throughout, Carol rejects the concept of "one right way" to teach, but believes instead that a responsive environment provides the greatest possibilities for student growth.

As Donald Graves notes, Carol shows "real children in the process of learning to learn". Classroom teachers, preservice teachers, parents, and anyone concerned with young children learning to read and write will appreciate this book for its honest look into a first-grade classroom, both its ups and its downs.

Review

Celebrating global clothing and costumes, this book offers a collection of crisp, color photographs showing children dressed in widely varied ways for school, sports, play, and celebrations. The country of origin appears in a corner of each picture. A large print text runs throughout the book, threading together the loosely organized pictures into a narrative with phrases such as, We wear all the colors of the rainbow.../and paint our faces, and wear masks. Illustrating that one sentence are photos on double-page spreads, showing children in Ukraine, Ecuador, Iran, Brazil, Martinique, Canada, and the Philippines. The composition and clarity of the photos make these fine pictures, while the children s faces make them riveting. An appended section, titled Discover Different Cultures, encourages readers to visit folk festivals, explore museums exhibiting clothing, and learn about the family origins, as well as how masks and costumes are made. An excellent addition to preschool and primary multicultural units. --Booklist

3.0 out of 5 stars Quality isn't there.
Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2021

I was surprised by the Crayola colored pencils because, in Crayola's marketing materials, they say, "Crayola colored pencils hold their own in the quality department featuring a thick wax-based core and smooth, creamy colors that have improved immensely over the years."Unfortunately, I found these Crayola colored pencils to be dry and not at all easy to blend. They made for patchy skin tones and decimated the paper before I was able to blend to get the colors I needed. In order to get great color when using colored pencils, your have to be able to blend, blend, blend. That takes two things, good pencils and great paper!From their marketing, as far as lightfastness, according to Pencil Place.com,"Crayola colored pencils are not designed for artistic use. Therefore, they tend to fade over time."This isn't good for anything artistic so stick to your adult coloring books.Sturdiness/ Durability 5/5"Crayola colored pencils are perhaps the sturdiest pencil in the business."Okay that might be true but it also might be why I found them to be incredibly dry. Again, that might be fine for coloring books but not for artwork.Binder/ Quality 2/5"Crayola colored pencils are made with a wax binder, which contributes greatly to their durability. That being said, the binder to pigment ratio is quite poor compared to professional grade colored pencils."I found both Prismacolor and Caran d'Arche binders make their pencils lay down and blend beautifully, unlike the Crayola. They're both made for artistic quality, not durability. With professional grade colored pencils, you have to be ultra careful not to drop your pencils because they're not made for durability. They're made to be a bit soft so they can blend. Because of that, they can break inside their wooden be shell. Both Prismacolor and Caran d'Arche are way more expensive, so you'd expect them to perform much better.Color Intensity 2/5. "Color intensity just isn't there."Maybe for elementary school children but not for anyone older whose trying to achieve the next level of artistic work. Again, it goes back to Crayola trying to make their pencils durable above all else. I don't think it's worth it. Because with that durability, you get dryness and lack of color intensity.According to Pencil Place.com "Crayola makes the cheapest colored pencil on the market."If that's what you're going for, great but understand, your child isn't going to be able to advance in their artwork because everything else, quality-wise, suffers. Frankly, I'm disappointed in these pencils. Give up a bit of the durability factor, charge a bit more and you might get a really decent older kid friendly, hobby friendly, and adult friendly pencil!I've been drawing, using a variety of colored pencils over many, many years. My favorite colored pencils are Prismacolors and CaranD'Arche Pablo and Luminance. Both of these pencil brands are professional grade pencils and you'll pay about $4 per pencil for professional grade pencils. Crayola is okay for kids up to about 5th grade but if your child is showing serious artistic ability, I would definitely suggest trying Prismacolor Col-Erase, which has a limited selection of colors but is good for children because they're erasable. The next student grade recommendation isPrismacolor's Scholar colored pencils. These have a wider variety of colors and are very affordable. Caran d'Ache Fancolor are water soluble student grade pencils. The bright colors are amazing and very appealing to kids.Caran d'Ache Fancolor colored pencils are also very affordable student grade pencils. Another worth trying are Derwent Academy student grade colored pencils. I'm not suggesting any other brands because I have no experience with other brands.Going up in quality doesn't have to break the bank.They are so worth it if you're serious about artwork. Both of these brands are the most gorgeous, creamy, easy to use colored pencils in my experience.In my opinion, these are suitable for elementary school kids and anyone not trying to get to the next level in drawing skills.
