| Some things never go out of style. Traditional values, such
as putting in an honest day's work, giving back to the community, respecting
your elders -- are passed on from generation to generation by men and women
who not only talk the talk, but live examples of positive values. In the
April-May 2001 issue of about...time magazine, we turn our spotlight
on folks we all could learn a lesson or two about values. |

- Most of us work hard to give our children the best. "And God
Said" -- a poem about the innocent, wide-eyed faces of children
pictured on the cover and inner pages of this issue, reflects on how children
learn what's important.
- "Teaching in the Moment" shows how ordinary conversations
can offer extraordinary opportunities to teach children values.
- Some of the best lessons come from the past. In "It's
Our Story, So Pass It On," hear the voice of Columbus, Ohio, storyteller
Marie Saunders Hope, who slips into historical characters of the past to
bring positive values into the present.
- What do a robe and 20-plus years of marriage have in common? Meet a
man who continues to value both as eternal symbols of love in "About
Marriage."
- Bring out the princess in your little girl with a Sissy Poo dress by
African-American designer Denise Allen Wicks, who creates Sunday Best items
that turn little girls into "Sophisticated Little Ladies!"
