Wild Things: The Art of Nurturing Boys

“As a pediatrician I see parents everyday wrestling with how to understand and guide their sons. If you’re looking for practical parenting skills these pages are filled with sound advice. The authors break down each stage of a boy’s journey and it is filled with effective, simple tips that you can implement now. This book is one of the best parenting resources I’ve seen. ” — Dr Linda Brady, Pediatrician, Nashville, Tennessee

“I loved this book! As a single mom for the past seven years, I couldn’t wait to dive into David and Stephen’s timely work. This mom of two wild things and two softer things needed their road map and driving instructions for the dangerous journey we are traveling. Bless you both for the wisdom you have given to me. May all our boys be nurtured and loved until they are the honorable men God intended for them to become.” –Angela Thomas, Speaker and Best-selling author of My Single Mom Life.

“David and Stephen have once again demonstrated the beauty and power of fraternal collaboration in their newest book. If I didn’t know otherwise, I would assume these two guys were grand-dads, not young dads, when I consider the depth of wisdom and breadth of practical applications captured between the covers of this volume. How I wish I had this book when my son was younger, yet the same principles of loving well are applicable from generation to generation. If you want hope and not hype, but this book. It is a joy to unequivocally endorse it, and I look forward to putting it in the hands of many dads, and moms as well. “
