Biography

Charlene Brotman, a grade school teacher and religious educator, wrote her first curriculum when she became concerned about the beliefs her young daughter was picking up about the Bible, and it was published as "Focus on Noah". She collaborated with DREs Ann Fields and Barbara Marshman, with Charlene researching and writing, Barbara doing the art, Ann editing and articulating the philosophy.

Together they envisioned a children's book based on the 7th Principle, a book to nurture a sense of wonder. Neither Barbara nor Ann lived to develop the book, but Charlene has just published it: "The Kids' Book of Awesome Stuff". A Leader's Guide will follow.
