Every parent and teacher wants to give children the best education possible.

Everyone would like education to be a joyous adventure and celebration of life, as well as a solid preparation for living. Sadly, most education today falls far short of this goal.

As Susan Schaeffer Macaulay shows, it doesn't have to be this way. Education can be a wonderful, life-enriching, joyous experience.

For the Children's Sake is a book about what education can be for your child, in your home, and in your school. It is based first on a Christian understanding of what it means to be human,to be a child, a parent, a teacher and on the Christian meaning of life.

At the same time it is deeply practical. Many of the central ideas have been tried and proven true over a century and almost every kind of educational situation. The ideas are in fact so true that they can be applied equally at home, in different schools, in Africa, in the inner city, and in your own community. But they are also ideas that Susan and her husband Ranald Macaulay have tried and proven in their own family and school experience.

For the Children's Sake is a book that can help every parent and teacher awaken the young minds of their children and give them a new richness, stability, and joy for living.
