тАЬChuaтАЩs memoir,┬аBattle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, is a quick, easy read. ItтАЩs smart, funny, honest and a little heartbreaking . . .тАЭ┬атАФChicago Sun-Times
At once provocative and laugh-out-loud funny, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother ignited a global parenting debate with its story of one motherтАЩs journey in strict parenting.┬а Amy Chua argues that┬аWestern parenting tries to respect and nurture childrenтАЩs individuality, while Chinese parents typically believe that arming children with skills, strong work habits, and inner confidence prepares them best for the future.┬а┬а Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother chronicles ChuaтАЩs iron-willed decision to raise her daughters, Sophia and Lulu, the Chinese way тАУ and the remarkable, sometimes heartbreaking┬а results her choice inspires.┬а Achingly honest and profoundly challenging, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is one of the most talked-about books of our times.
