[ThaiHaBooks] If ever a book could make you pause, take a deep breath, and whisper, “I wish I had read this sooner…” then it is undoubtedly “I Forgive You, Mom and Dad!”—an exquisitely printed, full-color bilingual (Vietnamese-English) book with emotional illustrations that turn every page into a doorway opening into a child’s inner world.

This is not your typical, cookie-cutter parenting guide. There is no judgment, no guilt-tripping, and no demand for you to be perfect. Instead, this book feels like a gentle hand resting on your shoulder, saying: “Mom, Dad… we can start over.”

Each page echoes the honest voice of a child—a voice that many adults have never truly heard, or perhaps have forgotten that they, too, once carried within. These soft whispers touch upon memories thought to be long dormant: the moments of being compared to others, being scolded in public, being overlooked in the busyness of adult life, or simply longing for a hug instead of a harsh word.

With remarkable subtlety, the book guides readers out of “wordless wounds” and into the light of understanding. It is here that parents begin to realize that behind every “difficult” behavior is a need yet to be spoken; that the child is not “bad,” they simply do not know how to express themselves; that the child does not need perfect parents, only a sincere heart; and that forgiveness is not about forgetting, but an opportunity for the whole family to relearn how to love more warmly and correctly.

The practical suggestions within are surprisingly simple yet possess profound transformative power: a gaze of full attention, 10 minutes of true listening, an apology offered at the right time, or just a warm embrace when a child cannot find the words for their emotions.

“I Forgive You, Mom and Dad!” serves as a mirror, helping you see not only the inner child within yourself but also the real child standing before you every day. It compels you to hug your child a little tighter, speak a little softer, and love with much greater consciousness.

If you have ever carried the wounds of childhood, or if you have ever unintentionally hurt your own child, this is a healing journey designed just for you. And if you are a parent navigating this busy modern era, this emotional bilingual illustrated book is an absolute must-have for your bookshelf.
