As
a former K-6 teacher, I was drawn to the fresh feel of the blurb of
this book. Finding educators who love what they do, who desire to impart
richness and plant seeds of possibility in their students (or total
strangers) are always worth my time.
This book did not disappoint.
No, I won't be going to college (as I am Aussie who has had her fill of University degrees and formal study at this point) but the passion of the author, the bite sized pieces of wisdom, and the engaging story writing are just some of the reasons to read this book.
Yes, no doubt, college students will benefit from its down to earth advice, that dares to encourage dreaming BIG, taking measured risks and choosing things you love.
It's voices like these that we need more of these days, and I for one feel richer for having listened to this very entertaining writers voice.
It is a refreshingly different read, human, honest, raw, funny...and that is what makes it great!
