Dear Highlights : what adults can learn from 75 years of letters and conversations with kids / Christine French Cully ; foreword by Amy Dickinson.
Every year tens of thousands of children write to Highlights magazine, sharing their hopes and dreams, worries and concerns, as if they were writing to a trusted friend. From the beginning the editors at Highlights have answered every child individually. Cully has curated a collection of the letters, emails, drawings, and poems to reveal an intimate and inspiring 75-year conversation between America's children and its leading children's magazine. She urges adults to lean in and listen to children, to make sure our kids know that they matter and what they think matters, and to assure them that they have the power to become people who change the world. -- adapted from jacket
