New Book On Parenting Tweens

A new book on parenting in the tween years has just come out by DC area writer Marybeth Hicks. The book is titled "Bringing Up Geeks", and in it, "geek" stands for: genuine, enthusiastic, empowered kid. We have not yet read the book, but the premise of protecting childhood innocence a bit longer into the tween years intrigues us. Ms. Twixt plans to read this during the carpool line/ballet class/soccer practice wait - please do post your comments as well!
