Inside Out Parenting: How to Build Strong Children from a Core of Self-Esteem (Paperback)

I really loved this useful and fascinating book - I only wish I’d had it earlier. If I was going to buy one book for a new parent, I’d buy this one - Cathy Rentzenbrink, author of The Last Act of Love and A Manual for Heartache

The baseline of this book is gold dust: the only thing you need to worry about is building up your child's self-esteem and everything else will come from that...The great thing is that she [Holan] is totally approachable, in fact she is almost humorous! She even talks about how she has f***ed things up in the past. - Talya Stone, blogger Motherhood the Real Deal

Dr Holan Liang has written a unique book on parenting, based on her experiences as a mother and a child psychiatrist. It is accessible, immediate and unpatronising – completely rooted in scientific evidence, yet ‘laugh out loud funny’ and highly practical. It tackles what I think is one of the most important aspects for all children – how to raise emotionally literate, robust and resilient children in a world where there seems to be increasing rates of child mental health disorders including depression, suicide, self-harm, anxiety and behavioural problems. - Professor Isobel Heyman, Great Ormond Street Hospital

A lovely combination of scientific knowledge and personal stories. Helps people understand what matters and why. - Professor Thalia Eley (Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King’s College London)
