Author: Judith Viorst

Selection Statement:

This book's themes are perseverance and maintaining a positive outlook even in difficult times. I worked with children and their parents for many years, guiding them through challenges and watching them thrive and persevere. As I pursued my doctorate, I embodied this theme, working through obstacles and focusing on my dream end goal. Now, as a professor and fatherhood researcher, I strive to promote these themes of perseverance and hope in students and families through my teaching and research.
