"Monday Morning Leadership is a story that can help your career! Everyone likes a good story, especially if there are lessons that can be immediately applied to life. This book is one of those stories -- about a manager and his mentor. It offers unique encouragement and direction that will help you become a better manager, employee, and person."

I received a copy to facilitate my review. The opinions expressed here are my own.
As a grandparent this story resonated with me. I want to be an influence in the lives of my grandchildren. The main characters are bears. However, children will be able to identify with them. baxter is the young bear telling the story of time spent with his Paw-Paw every Monday morning. These trips with his Paw-Paw are special. He learns lessons about accepting responsibility for his own decisions. He learns that the choices he makes can have an effect on others. he learns he needs to do the right thing when no one else is watching him. He also learns the importance of making good choices, especially when it comes to choosing his friends.

I passed this book on to my best friend who has a so the same age as my grandson. She said her son repeatedly asked her to reread the book. It is important that I place good books not only in the hands of my own grandchildren ad their parents but in the hands of my friends with young children as well. After all, one day these children will grow up to be adults and I want to make sure I've done my part in helping them to grow up to be great people… (mais)
