About this listen

 "Children don't fail, the adults around them do - and it is up to us to light the candle of excellence within each one we know and love," begins Marva Collins, one of America's foremost educators, in her important work, Values. This practical guide is for those of us who strive to be role models, who want to know the important values, live them, and teach them to our children. In the tradition of recent best sellers by Marion Wright Edelman and Hillary Clinton, Collins provides dozens of games, exercises, poems, and daily proverbs to help encourage in our families values such as kindness, courage, determination, faith, confidence, and responsibility. Taken from her superbly effective teaching and inspirational methods, these techniques are essential if both we and our children are to lead successful and meaningful lives.©1995 by Dove Audio, Inc.

Inspirational

Marta Collins is one of the truly inspirational teachers of our time. She is a teacher not only for children but for adults as well. With her passing the world lost one of its truly shining stars.
Her legacy lives on though, through her audiobooks and her written works so that we all may learn how to live a better life.
