From the Publisher"Every parent dreads letting children go. Partly, we dread it because we lack a clear roadmap of how and when to do it. Homesick and Happy changes that. It is a powerful and very accessible book that helps build maturity and resilience in our children—and also in parents, as well!"—Michael Gurian, author of The Wonder of Boys and The Wonder of Girls
"With a deep understanding, a great sense of humor, and impeccable resources, Michael Thompson succeeds brilliantly in generating just a touch of envy in the hearts of all those parents who read Homesick and Happy . . . for the great fun their kids are going to have."—Harriet Lowe, editor in chief, Camping magazine
"Thompson pours his heart into these pages, along with his unsurpassed wisdom about children and their parents.
