pickThis is the newest book by the same author.
Noticing by Kobi Yamada was the perfect read in the quiet of the morning on the day after my father took his flight from this world. May we all take the time to “pause and allow for the extraordinary“ that this beautiful life offers!
Another fun book for children from this award winning author

pickQuite interesting, as Adam Grant always is, but a few days later, I'm remembering the case studies but not much in the way of the content...
pickFast and easy read. Provides a lot of detail on how Stella learned to talk using an assistance device - voice buttons. It seems almost too good to be true, but the dog research I‘ve read over the years indicates it‘s possible that Stella (and other dogs) have higher neurological functions that we thought. 3/5 stars - cites Speech Language research, but almost no canine research so a lower rating.
Also, welcome Aloy - our rescue puppy!
pickI was expecting this to be a bit dry but it was surprisingly funny and engaging. I will need a physical copy at some point because I can see myself reading it over and over everytime I start to learn a new language (I'm a wannabe polyglot) but listening to it did have some advantages because he gives very specific pronunciation examples. Chock full of resources and language learning advice as well as his own experience and specific study methods.
pickAn important book about America‘s history and how Black folx learned to read. Remember, there is always a reason why books are banned and education is underfunded!
i love me some amazon…saved me last year, again this year and every time in between… #mysantaisamazon
pickAdam Grant writes an inspirational book about character and provides some great motivational zingers. Lots of great anecdotes and the first half is excellent. The second half lost a little steam for me- there‘s a lot of athletic stories, and the education aspects were weaker than other chapters. Even still, it‘s an inspiring, quick book to lift spirits.
so-soNice to have these reminders!
so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️ Overall I found it interesting, but none of it seemed like new information to me - more like stories & studies to back up things I already knew. Grant reads the audiobook, which feels like a long-form podcast, and there are quite a few differences between the audio & the hard copy-I‘d recommend the audio. If leadership studies or growing potential is an interest of yours, I would definitely recommend this.I‘m just not his prime audience.
