Books...Audio Books...Ted Talks

I just finished reading How Children Succeed by Paul Tough... They succeed with skills like perseverance, curiosity, optimism, self control, conscientiousness etc...

Also, my friend Martha recommended I watch Ken Robinson on Ted Talks...he talks about how schools kill creativity in kids.  Here       Martha home schooled her children.

I love audio books especially fiction.  I have a 30 minute commute to work so it works for me.
I just finished Summerland by Elin Hilderbrand.  A family saga set in Nantucket. Lots of beach and food talk.
