A parent might reach for this book when their child begins to ask big questions about how they fit into the neighborhood, school, and society at large. It is an ideal tool for children who are transitioning into the big kid stage and starting to notice that they have different roles in different settings. The book explores the essential balance between our private lives (hobbies, family, and personal dreams) and our civic lives (responsibilities, community service, and local engagement). Focusing on the themes of responsibility and identity, Living Two Lives helps children ages 7 to 11 understand that being a good citizen doesn't mean giving up who you are as an individual. It provides a structured way to discuss how personal character fuels community contribution. Parents will find it particularly useful for sparking conversations about volunteerism, empathy, and the importance of participating in the development of their town or region.
