<p>I’m reading the new book by Wendy Mogul called “The Blessing of a B Minus: Using Jewish Teachings to Raise Resilient Teenagers.” When my kids were younger, I loved her previous book, “The Blessing of a Skinned Knee.” Our family is Christian, but I found that her stories and observations applying Jewish teachings were relevant to us, as well.
Bonus: there is a College Confidential mention on page 10…although in the context of discussing the “cutthroat process of college admissions”.</p>
