Polar Bear Pirates and Their Quest to Reach Fat City by Adrian Webster

Polar Bear Pirates and Their Quest to Reach Fat City is a unique experience. It has the appealing appearance and feel of a child's book but contained within it, is a whole new universe of characters and terminology that anyone striving for success in whatever they do will instantly recognise and be able to relate to. Adrian Webster brings to life a group of audacious characters called Polar Bear Pirates who do battle with obstacles of the likes of Sinkers, Neg Ferrets and BLOATERS along the road to success. And just what is at the end of the road? Well it's Fat City. It's where the winners want to be. You'll immediately relate to the animated characters, viruses and terminology throughout the book, whether categorising yourself or your colleagues and friends. (We all have dealt with NegFerrets and BLOATERS ...we just didn't know what they were called before). But it's more than just a laugh and light read. Although highly engaging and entertaining, Adrian Webster also gives you the tools and tips to become the success you want to be. Polar Bear Pirates and Their Quest to Reach Fat City is a completely unique, easy, quick and fun book to read. It unravels complex motivational issues, delivers powerful, serious messages and provides inspirational career and business advice in a refreshingly new, simple and engaging way.
