First Solo: Learning to Recognize the Spirit

by John Bytheway

Well actually I listened to this. I love John Bytheway. He can be funny and yet still brings the spirit to his talks!

This was one of my favorite books on tape when I was a teenager. I really liked how John Bytheway could relate to me. The other top favorite of his books on tape during my teenage years was "What Are You Carrying in Your Backpack" They are both really great.
