These initial perceptions are almost always based upon physical attributes, past experiences, or simply developed over time.

Children all over the world dream to do, and to be, great things. Unfortunately, many things often block those dreams: social and economic realities; cultural and racial bias, etc. In school, parents may feel pressured to steer their children toward academic achievement while ignoring the child’s heart-cry to play, to create, to imagine and to dream. As a parent myself, I have noted my own tendencies to encourage academic success over heart-centered creativity. Most parents, teachers and child-care workers are balancing multiple demands and just trying to survive the daily grind! So, I offer this book as an encouragement to LISTEN closely to every child’s dream. Give their imagination attention. Perhaps, YOU will be the person who helps to make their dream into reality.
