-- Professor Emerita Emmy Werner of the UC Davis Department of Human and Community Development has received the "Dolley Madison Award for Outstanding Lifelong Contributions to the Development and Well-being of Children and Families" in December from the National Center for Infants, Toddlers and Families in Washington, D.C. Werner's new book, "Through the Eyes of Innocents: Children Witness World War II," published by Westview Press, was released in December. It is based on diaries and journals of 200 children living in areas that held opposing views about the war. The book chronicles how these children endured World War II and the adversities they overcame.
