MY DEAREST CHILDREN

DANNA'S MEMOIR

Written as thought-provoking letters to her children, My Dearest Children is a new memoir produced by Margaret's Legacy's founder, Danna Horwood. Her engaging stories span nearly one hundred years of family history, from pre Holocaust to the present day, blending together themes of courage, survival, identity, motherhood, grief, legacy and the fierce belief that healing is always possible. Danna brilliantly weaves together pop culture, current events and evidence-based sources within her personal narrative to help achieve greater emotional depth, a sense of personal connection with readers and inspiration for the next generation. 

Also available on other Amazon marketplaces in paperback, hardcover and eBook formats. Stay tuned for expanded distribution channels and in-person bookstore options.

RECOMMENDED READING

(FOR ADULTS)

We’ve curated a collection of books that helped shaped our thinking and encouraged us to evaluate our approach, what works and what could be improved on.

 

From the foundations behind Margaret’s Legacy to the writing of My Dearest Children to the latest research shaping the future of Holocaust education, antisemitism awareness, and values-driven learning, these books have helped us shift in meaningful ways.

 

Our list is primarily focused on themes surrounding intergenerational trauma, the science of human development, emotional intelligence, ethics, parenting, relationships and the ongoing work of becoming. We have also include other meaningful memoirs and stories that have touched our hearts. The list is a work in progress.
