Summary of Esther Wojcicki's How To Raise Successful People
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family, and I was expected to marry a rich Jewish man when I was eighteen and have lots of children. The fact that I had different goals caused a rift in my relationship with my grandfather. #2 The importance of men was illustrated to me when my brother Lee was born on May 23, 1945, three days before my fifth birthday. My parents brought him home on my birthday, and I could hardly contain my excitement when my father opened the door and led my mother inside. But my father told me something that still shocks me to this day. #3 I had a love of reading, and I would spend hours at the local public library. I also sold more Girl Scout cookies than any other girl in SunlandTujunga. I had no lessons, afterschool classes, or special performances, but the public school loaned me a violin and I dutifully practiced every night. #4 The death of David, my brother, set me on a path to think for myself and question authority. I wanted a different kind of life, one in which I was treated equally by men and women.

Those Who Can, Teach
"Arts teacher Andria Zafirakou was always a rule-breaker. At her inner-city London school where more than eighty languages are spoken, she would sense urgent needs; mending uniforms, calling social services, shielding vulnerable teens from gangs. And she would tailor each class to its pupils, fiercely believing in the power of art to unlock trauma, or give a mute child the confidence to speak. Time and again, she would be proved right. So in 2018, when Andria won the million-dollar Global Teacher Prize, she knew exactly where the money would go: back into arts education for all. Because today, the UK government's cuts and curriculum changes are destroying the arts, while their refusal to tackle the most dangerous threats faced by children - cyber-bullying, gang violence, hunger and deprivation - puts teachers on the safeguarding frontline. Andria's story is a rallying wake-up call that shows what life is really like for schoolchildren today, and a moving insight into the extraordinary people shaping the next generation"--Publisher's description.
