International bestselling author and acclaimed writing workshop leader Laura Munson for her new book, THE WILD WHY: Stories and Teachings to Uncover Your Wonder. Why is the sky blue? Why do only birds get to fly? Is there a God? And if so, why does God let bad things happen? Why do people die? It’s natural for children to ask questions, big and small. But too often, adults brush off such questions as an annoyance, or scold kids for being rude, or even respond to their asking with punishment. When that happens, many children stop asking and grow up to become adults who believe it’s safer to stay quiet and squelch their inherent, and essential, sense of wonder.⁠https://selfdiscoverywisdom.com/?p=130050
