Author Christina Ivazes has traveled the world. She has 3 grown daughters and 7 grandchildren of her own. She pulls from a lifetime of working with infants, children, teen, and families as a teacher, caregiver, and community organizer in her new book, The New Physics of Childhood: Replacing Modern Myths with Simple Strategies. In this revolutionary new book, Ivazes, aka Granny Pants reveals the often subtle myths about raising children in today's world that are literally killing our kids without parents or peripheral adults realizing their participation in these assaults.

With the rising rates of caesarian births, obesity, diabetes, illiteracy, gang activity, ADHD, and depression among children and teens, modern child rearing practices desperately need a new model. The disconnect between the thousands of parenting books on the market in recent years and these escalating problems means one thing: our children are crying out and we are not really listening.

A power-packed, easy-to-read guide, The New Physics of Childhood takes a detailed look at the myths that have propagated these growing challenges in our global society and digs up buried fundamentals every child needs to thrive regardless of culture, age, socioeconomic status, or geographical location.

Unlike parenting books, this indispensible guide connects the whole child to the family, the community, the larger society, and the environment. A must for those raising or caring for a child in the twenty-first century, The New Physics of Childhood offers a pragmatic approach to child rearing.

Author Christina Ivazes will be introducing her important new book to Sacramento during a book signing at Underground Books on Saturday, Dec. 12th from 2-4pm. Meet the author and discover today's surprising myths affecting the lives of children while exploring preventive and easy to implement solutions.
