 Pulling Weeds to Picking Stock January 6, 2009
I felt there were many practical suggestions for handling life and its problems. This would be a very good book for young people starting at about the 6th grade and review it every few years to reaffirm what they learned previously. A lot that was given was good common sense. I would suggest it for any age.

I was a little disappointed that the book did not clearly state if the boys were "millionaires" or not. I can find find very little biographical history of the boys. Are they real?

Advice from a Mom. This delightful book would make a great gift for young people and an interesting read for all of us. Would hope to see this book in all the public and school libraries.

[...] I am in the process of reading it. It is very practical and I like the fact that my 14 yr. old likes it and agrees that a strong work ethic is important and a good thing. I also have an 11 yr. old who I want to read the book with. Money well spent.

Read the book quickly and easily, and there are plenty of gems there for kids of all ages. We have begun to read excerpts to our five year old, and will use this text as a study guide for him when he is older. The ideas behind this book are what made America great more than two hundred years ago, and they can help bring us back to those times.
