- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The TRICK system is a great principle for adults and children, alike. Infact, many of The Wog's ideas transcend age. I appreciate how thoroughly she has pondered her principals. Buy this book for anyone who's ever had or going to have a kid.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is one of the books I have read. The writer is a well-known well-educated professional educator. This book gives a comprehensive insight about the major pillars in the education and the process of raising children. At some points the author has stressed on her personal experience and given examples from hair family and background situations. Nevertheless, the whole book gives a great insight about the up to date evidences in social science and education. I would like to thank the narrator for hair lovely reading and lovely voice
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It good and concise with proper examples to understand the basic TRICK principles. A must read book.
