Parents, as the first teachers of their children, are longing to master some scientific educational concepts and methods. At the moment, scientific family education thus becomes the content that most parents are eager to know about and study. They actively collect various information and receive educational guidance. Therefore, the books about family education become good helpers of parents to educate their children, the most popular and widely accepted publications in China, and the hotspots of topic selection and marketing of the presses.
　　However, for the blindness of the market, many presses followed the trend and published many books of unscientific family education, which instead of bringing parents inspirations or guidance, aroused more confusions and perplexities, some even misguided parents on family education. The prevailing problems are: the contents of many family education books are relatively superficial; and some books plagiarized one another. Some books were even copied by some “writers” or work studios. These “writers” lack of the most basic educational theoretical attainment, because they never have any parenthood experience, have never engaged in educational work, nor have received any professional educational training. The market is full of various books on family education. These books are similar in topics and contents, but totally different in viewpoints. In such circumstance, parents have the demand of books on family education yet they cannot find the really good ones.
　　I delightedly found Successful Family Education published by Guangdong Education Publishing House when I was browsing the recently published Cantonese books. In my opinion, the set of books named Successful Family Education stands out of all the “Family Education Books of Guangdong Province” this year. It stresses on family education guidance and home-school cooperated education. The set of books is written by education professionals organized by Guangdong Women’s Federation and Guangzhou Municipal Education Bureau. The full set of books consists of four volumes: preschool edition, primary school edition, junior high school edition and senior high school edition. All the books embody the people-oriented and quality-oriented education concept and are of a strong interactivity and attraction.
