Gerrie Grevatt, Chronicle Herald
"Masterfully written and executed with simplicity at its heart, Scott's Tao offers unadorned axioms that inspire a moment's thought or a day's reflection. Reading the 84-page book is akin to taking a peaceful walk alone - you may stop at any point on your journey to savour the surroundings or meander without pause."

Chris Buckham, special to the Daily News
"The sage, simple prose of The Tao of Parenting is provacatively textured with black and white photographs of naturescapes, wildlife, havens and moments. Whether juxtaposed or alike in content, these groupings help remind us that parenting is a universal evolution ebbing and flowing all over the planet. "The world was set up to teach us everything we need to know."

"The Tao of Parenting is a gentle lesson instructing us to feel with the feelings of a child and experience the care and wonderment of honoring our own inner child in the same way we honor newborn and growing children. Within the bouancy and sophistication of the Tao, compassion and common sense marry well."
