The Big Questions guided journal encourages active listening and sharing -- focusing on finding common values and family history. It promotes curiosity and exploration of the deep family roots that unite us. Someone once said that we understand our parents best when we see them as children. And, in a time of generational, political and often geographical separation, the ability to connect with our parents is more challenging than ever. Talking to the people closest to us can be hard. That's where The Big Questions can help. This interactive book of questions encourages empathy and bonding by allowing our parents to tell their own stories. It's a conduit and an excuse to ask them the questions we've always wanted to know the answer to -- and to record them for posterity.

The Big Questions helps us talk to our parents about their lives and the forces that shaped them. This guided journal will be an essential tool for anyone wishing to have deeper, more engaging conversations with their parents, as well as celebrate family history.
