Summary

A wonderful collection of stories for teachers, trainers, parents and thinkers that share ancient wisdom through stories told in a modern relationship between grandson and grandfather. The stories and recollections chart the growth of the child from teenager to adult under the guidance of his grandfather. The grandfather provides answers to questions he is asked with stories, challenges, games and questions. Questions such as 'How can I become more popular?, 'What should I do when I leave school?' 'Why is Aunt Joan miserable all the time?' are answered partly through the grandfather's extensive contact with famous personalities that he has known. These warm, funny and inspiring stories can be read individually, one at a time, or as a whole book by both children and adults.
