Filled with quizzes, anecdotes, and practical strategies, Drive helps parents turn Generation Me” into Generation Move.”

“Raising Arizona Kids,” October 2008
“This book uniquely offers…astute observations about ‘millenials’…[Caffrey’s] in a position to know what she is talking about.”

“Williamson Parent,” August 2008
“A smart read for parents who want to inspire their children and develop motivation.”

“Library Journal”
“With quizzes, anecdotes, and strategies, this is an excellent resource for parents and teachers.”

“Washington Post” “The Checkup” blog
“It’s a welcome reminder that not every kid in the world is a gifted go-getter…chock-full of suggestions…I find it refreshing to see someone focusing on all those kids who are kind of stuck in the middle, who may need a good kick in the butt to help them make more of themselves.”
