First book I have ever read by John Maxwell and it truly lives up to its name in every respect. Once you start reading you do not want to put it down - down-to-earth, practical, real life lessons for even young people. As a matter of fact, the younger you are when you read this book the better. Thumps up..if there were 6 stars this book was going to get all 6 - since there are only 5 I will have to settle for that.
