I absoltely loved this book. It makes you think about your life and the life of your childrn and what you can do to help your children think like this young man did after completing each task. The movie was very good and took the story line a little farther than the book. There is also a curiculum which you can purchase that goes through each lesson learned which you complete with your family. It is at www.onceuponafamily.com/4gr8kids. Look under the Ultimate Gift section to read more about it and to purchase the curriculm through the website. Enjoy!!!
I thought the book was a good book except for the fact that it didn't go into enought detail about what all the boy had to do each month. I would have liked at least a little more information about what he did for each person or to complete each request. It would just all of a sudden have him back at the lawyers office to get his next assignment. I was disappointed in that. It was still a good book and made you think about things in your own life. I would recommend it but not like I would other books I have read.
A wise gentleman leads his great nephew to discover the most important lessons in life. It could be a valuable guide for all parents. We should all wish for such a mentor and guide in our lives as this man was to his nephew. A perfect illustration of how to learn from the previous generations' errors.
Book Club Choice, Excellent book, bought others as gifts. Books were in excellent condition. I think everyone with a family should read this book. It has excellent values to instill in ourselfs and our families.
