I mistakenly read this book for a Book Club. We are reading another book with the same title. However, I am grateful for the mix up! Even though it is based on motivation for business, I found the book to be very enlightening and inspiring. I am a teacher and considered many of the lessons the character learned about business could be applied to my classroom. There were points where the story line seemed to go too quickly or not enough explanation was given about events. Yet the main points of the lessons learned were clear. I really enjoyed this read!
