“Some of the many books I'm enjoying: @EmEsfahaniSmith @PorathC @stevemagness @BStulberg @tdufu @stevenbjohnson @bonniestjohn @ktparkerphoto | This book is extremely interesting and informative. I now understand myself more and why I do certain things. I learned all this from almost fatal mistakes. I’m listening to Peak Performance on my Audible app. Try Audible and get it here:”

Consider The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy. Recommended by 8 sources.
“Soft-spoken, heavily illustrated fable built from short dialogues and watercolor sketches. Each spread pairs a spare line of text with a loose drawing, so the pleasure is visual and aphoristic rather than narrative; readers collect felt-true sentences more than plot. Most useful when you want quick consolations, a prompt for conversation with a child, or a pause during a rough day. Limiting if you want sustained argument, concrete advice, or tightly plotted storytelling: the repetition of gentleness can feel sentimental or thin after a while.”
