-In Inspire Your Children: 12 Practical Steps to Help Your Christian Child Succeed, Siau Smith reminds me of that same practical love and wisdom that surrounded me as a child. She does not outline a complicated set of instructions, but instead, provides tips that will give confidence to parents who strive to be the best they can be for the sake of their children.- Mary Nelson, Founder of Mission Bible Class. www.missionbibleclass.org
-I have known Siau Smith as a parent of children who attended the school where I am the principal so it is with some authority I can attest to her personal qualities, positive attitude, caring behaviour and the guiding principles she has always espoused in raising a happy and successful family. Siau has written this book from the heart, with the intention of sharing her experiences and knowledge of raising four children with other parents of young children. I commend this book to those on life's journey, as a practical guide to helping them establish the corner stone that will enable them to become responsible, well-adjusted and contributing young people in the future.- Esther Wood OAM Principal Burwood Heights Primary School
-Some very interesting information and genuine reflection on child development. Your approach and information for the three major developments literacy, numeracy and social skills show great thought and knowledge. I have enjoyed your work. Well done and I wish you all the best with your book.- Bronwyn Heller Melbourne teacher - retired
-My reaction is from the perspective of someone who has no personal or professional experience in parenting. My overall reaction is very positive. The writing style is very accessible and readable. The approach is coherent and succinct. The use of Scripture is appropriate in the sense that the book lets the passages of Scripture speak rather than twisting Scripture to support a point you are making in the book.- John P Wiegand Attorney and Hymnbook Editor
-Siau Smith has inspired me to keep striving to pass onto our grown children the heavenly blessings, reminding of the power of the stories of the Bible that affect the future destiny of a person at any age. Siau inspires me to strive for a better learning environment, organised, planned and uncluttered and one that is comfortable with the right environment. Overall you have compiled many beautiful ideas that truly do inspire the reader, especially a spiritually minded reader. Thank you, Siau. God bless your efforts and love for inspiring parents' success in children.- Elonie Cseszko Relief teacher - Melbourne
