      I thought this would be a good book until I read the paragraph telling kids not the set goals too high and keep expectations realistic. I tossed it after that.

      Shouldn’t kids be settting high goals for themselves and working to achieve them? Even if the goals seem unrealistic, should anyone really tell a kid his expectations are too high?

      I really enjoy reading the book and I will surely recommend it to both parents and kids. It’s so easy to read and the advice is simple and fun. I’m sure the book will help my daughters to have a positive self esteem and to have personal power.

      First found this book in the library; a librarian found it when he did a search to find books that might help my son deal with bullying in his school. I read it, because book seemed to uninteresting to read to my 6-year-old; I found the book really helped me! I liked the layout, and the anecdotes, and the information was clearly and engagingly presented. When I use the book to work on my assertiveness, I expect my self-esteem will improve at the same time.

      My children will benefit when they come accross the book in our home when they are older.

      I read this book and discussed it with my 9 and 12 year old sons. It’s well explained and is an eye opener to feelings and thoughts that children do not often think about.

      For people who didn’t know how to write a personal statement,this book can provide you different statement samples for references. Also, you can see different opinions from Dean of Admission of many schools about their admission rules.It is a book of records, the writer didn’t say much about it.

      There was nothing unique about this book. I bought 4 different books to help me write my personal statement. They all said the same thing with the same insight. Talk about plagarism. They weren’t word-for-word, but the gist was the same.

      Save your money and buy only 1 book!

      The best book in the market, it touches all the points to write an introspective essay.Will give you the right question to come up with the best possible personal statement (if you manage to answer all the mentioned questions in the book).
      The are very few essays which one can relate to.You can see different opinions from Dean of Admission of many schools about their admissions and what they are looking in a student essays.
      On top of all a thin 100 page book, I recommend this book wholeheartedly.
      I have researched a lot and the othe two decent books in the market are the Montauk’s book and the ABC MBA advantage book.
