datamom 's review for:

Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua

5.0

---

This book was so controversial at the time it skyrocketed global bookstore sales during its prime. There are many lessons to be learned from this book. My husband and I took turns reading and discussed it for days on end. It is audacious and well-written. You may or may not agree with the author's extreme parenting methods but this is a gem to an otherwise bland array of parenting books.
