Yes, folks, it's Tuesday and the Kidling and I hit the library for our usual weekly trip. Rather than sticking myself with the Care Bears for all eternity (or at least the next week!), I hit the stacks as well and found a book that I don't think I'll be able to put down.
Farrah Gray's book Reallionaire: The Essential Lessons that Took Me From Public Assistance to a Millionaire by the Age of 14 caught my eye for some pretty obvious reasons. First of all, who doesn't love the implied story of overcoming adversity told in that subtitle? Secondly, "by the age of 14". Wowsers...I'm hooked!
Upon flipping through it, I found that it's not just a bunch of feel-good, "look how lucky this kid was" warm fuzzies. Thankfully there are puzzles and toys in the children's section of the library, because I plunked myself down and ended up reading the first several chapters right then and there. The tone of this book is friendly, straight-forward, and funny. Now if you'll excuse me...I'm gonna go finish reading!
this is the best book in the world
