New Author Wins First Place For Best Parenting Book

New Author received top award for best parenting book from The Bay Area Independent Publishers Association.

(PRWEB) January 7, 2006 -- New Author, Carolyn Esparza, MSW/LPC Makes big impressions with her parenting book, The Parenting Business, Hindsight is 20/20. Mrs. Esparza walked away with a top award from the 2005 BAIPA Awards. The Bay Area Independent Publishers Association presented the First Place prize to Mrs. Esparza for Best Parenting Book of 2005.

Mrs. Esparza has also received a rave review from ForeWord Magazine in the July/August issue, and also from Midwest Book Review in June 2004.

The author, a counselor, has many poignant and pertinent anecdotes and suggestions. Her experience working with juvenile offenders and at-risk youth provides extreme examples. “Criminals do not grow up in vacuums,” she states. “They grow up in families.” Her warnings come with hope and faith. Believing that parents can learn to do a better job, she offers concrete advice for both new and experienced parents.

With the clarity of 20-20 hindsight, a licensed Christian counselor named Carolyn Esparza provides vital and encouraging parenting tools straight from a well-worn counseling toolbox. Presented through poignant examples from the author’s thirty years of counseling with some of our country’s most troubled youth, and many a bungled parenting experience with her own four children, she provides a valuable and helpful perspective on the challenges of raising children in today’s turbulent world.
