Writer to
Writer is a unique writing challenge through the Southern California
Library Literacy Network (SCLLN). Writer to Writer invites adult literacy
learners to write a letter to an author whose writing has changed the way they
think about life. A group of learners from Literacy
Volunteers-HBPL participated in the challenge this year. We hope you enjoy
some of their letters!
Dear
Mr. Gary Chapman,
I
read your book The Five
Love Languages of Teenagers and I want to say that this is a wonderful
book. This book is having a good impact
on me. It’s taught me many things, like
how parents focus more on the errors of their teenagers and the parents forget
to give affirmation words. Parents are
hurting who they most love. Parents and
teenagers both battle with each other and both end up hurt. Another thing that as parents we forget to do
is the right thing when the teenager makes mistakes. Love your teenager when they fail. This book helped me understand my
teenager. My relationship with my
daughter now is better. I’m trying to be
a better mother following the advice from this book.
The
next book that I’m reading is The five Love Languages of Children. Then I hope I can read The Five Love
Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts.
I think both books are great.
Overall, thank you for writing this kind of book Mr. Gary Chapman. I learned a lot. This book was very helpful. My daughter and I became friends but
sometimes I have to remind her I’m her mother.
Sincerely,
J.
A.
