Hi, I’m Chris, owner of Transom Bookshop, a Tarrytown local, voracious reader (obviously), and parent of two school-age kids. As a member of Tarrytown’s ‘HeadsUp’ PTA committee, a supporter of the Center for Humane Technology, an annual donor to the National Coalition Against Censorship, and a signee of the Wait Until 8th Pledge, I’ve read extensively on the increasing complexity of parenting in the modern age, particularly as it pertains to screen-based childhoods, the book-banning epidemic, and the troubling past and murky future of masculinity. Scroll on for some helpful recommendations.
