What I Know - Review and Giveaway {CLOSED}

Product Description

Only people at the bookends of life can truly tell it like it is. In What I Know, a remarkable group of 10-year-olds and 100-year-olds share their insights on life with Roger Fishman to reveal unguarded truths and surprising wisdom.

You’ll be inspired by the lighthearted yet profound thoughts from 10-year-olds:
“Think of yourself as a dot on a line. The things behind you are already over, so always move forward down the line.”
“Integrity is doing good deeds when no one is looking.”
“It’s not about whether somebody will ‘be there’ for you. It’s all about whether you will ‘be there’ for somebody else.”

And you’ll find time-tested knowledge in the words of centenarians:
“In marriage, you have two sides to the bed: one where you fight and the other where you make up.”
“You’ve got to love, respect, and develop a genuine belief in yourself before you can be there to do that for anybody else.”
“In life, the one thing you can control is your word.”

Offering a variety of perspectives from these two unique groups, What I Know is, ultimately, a trove of universal truths from a diverse cross section of 10-year-olds and 100-year-olds with a wealth of experience.

I found What I know to be a very interesting read. There are so many great stories that have been shared as well as some super cute quotes. I fell in love with so many of them/. It's funny to think that many of them are from kids too. Children never do seize to amaze me with some of the things that come out of their mouths. I think so many people take them and their wisdom for granted. They are definitely smarter than we think. I'm not necessarily talking about intellectually either. I'm talking about smarts in life in general. They know more about what's going on that we give them credit for. I really think this book shows us that.

One of the many quotes I found that I liked is the following:

"Life is unexpected like a curveball. Sometimes you'll strike out, sometimes you'll get hit by the pitch, and other times you'll get the big hit. Just be ready for your at bat."
-mackenzie s., clermont, fl.
