This book contains anecdotes of Reb Yaakov Kaminetsky's outstanding middos, starting when he was a young boy. Yanky can relate to the young Reb Yaakov and is inspired. He adapts these middos to his own life, as a boy of 9 or 10 years old. This raises his self esteem and he is able to work harder to concentrate on his gemara and succeed in learning.
This is a delightful book for ages 8 - adult! I suggest that an adult discuss the middos with a young reader to increase understanding and encourage emulating Reb Yaakov.
