Life's Greatest Lessons: 20 Things That Matter by Hal Urban

LIFE'S GREATEST LESSONS is a wise, wonderful book. In it, Hal Urban, a parent and an award-winning teacher, presents twenty principles that are as deeply rooted in common sense as they are in compassion. The topics, gathered from a lifetime of teaching both children and adults, span a wide range of readily understood concepts, including attitudes about money, understanding the real meaning of 'success' and the importance of having fun. The book will help you find the best - in the world, in others, and in yourself. Classic in its simplicity and enduring in its appeal, LIFE'S GREATEST LESSONS helps us all rediscover that the desire to live a good life is timeless.
