Review

"I love this little book!

I have bought copies to give as gifts to teachers achieving the DfES CPD certificate in PSHE, but it would also be a wonderful affordable gift for all young people leaving school at 16 or 18. I have given it to my dearest friends and my two children in their early twenties embarking on their first careers, because it has so many pearls of wisdom about how to manage life, keep things perspective and demonstrates how developing a positive attitude can have a big effect on our physical and mental health and help us to realise our dreams and aspirations. It would be a great little book to delve into for assemblies as well.

It is a real gem, full of really succinct quotes from a diverse range of famous people like Socrates, Helen Keller and Arthur Ashe. It also contains, in a beautifully condensed way, useful information taken from world experts like Stephen Covey, Susan Jeffers and relates closely to all we know about accelerated learning and learning styles."
