Description
The extraordinary story of the small Vermont town that has likely produced more Olympians per capita than any other place in the country, Norwich gives āparents of young athletes a great giftāa glimpse at another way to raise accomplished and joyous competitorsā (The Washington Post).
In Norwich, Vermontāa charming town of organic farms and clapboard colonial buildingsāa culture has taken root thatās the opposite of the hypercompetitive schoolyard of todayās tiger moms and eagle dads. In Norwich, kids arenāt cut from teams. They donāt specialize in a single sport, and they even root for their rivals. Whatās more, their hands-off parents encourage them to simply enjoy themselves. Yet this village of roughly three thousand residents has won three Olympic medals and sent an athlete to almost every Winter Olympics for the past thirty years.
Now, New York Times reporter and āgifted storytellerā (The Wall Street Journal) Karen Crouse spills Norwichās secret to raising not just better athletes than the rest of America but happier, healthier kids. And while these ācounterintuitiveā (Amy Chua, bestselling author of Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother) lessons were honed in the New England snow, parents across the country will find that āCrouseās message applies beyond a particular town or stateā (The Wall Street Journal).
If youāre looking for answers about how to raise joyful, resilient kids, let Norwich take you to a place that has figured it out.
