Summary

In 'David's Little Lad' by L. T. Meade, readers are taken on a heartwarming journey through the English countryside as David, a young boy, befriends a mysterious little lad who appears to be a fairy. The book is written in a charming and descriptive style, with vivid imagery that brings the setting to life. Meade's work is reminiscent of classic English storytelling, filled with themes of innocence, friendship, and the beauty of nature. The narrative is engaging and will appeal to readers of all ages, especially those who enjoy children's literature with a touch of magic. Meade's ability to capture the wonder and imagination of childhood is truly captivating. L. T. Meade, a prolific author of children's literature in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, drew inspiration from her own experiences and observations of children to create endearing stories that continue to resonate with readers today. Her works often explore themes of friendship, adventure, and the importance of imagination. Meade's unique perspective and storytelling skills set her apart as a beloved author in the genre. I highly recommend 'David's Little Lad' to anyone looking for a delightful read that will transport them to a world of magic and wonder. Meade's timeless tale is a true gem in children's literature that deserves to be cherished and enjoyed by readers of all ages.

    New York Times Bestselling AuthorColin Powell, one of America’s most admired public figures, reveals the unique lessons that shaped his life and careerIt Worked for Me is a collection of lessons and personal anecdotes that shaped four star-general and former Secretary of State Colin Powell’s legendary career in public service. At its heart are Powell’s “Thirteen Rules,”—notes he accumulated on his desk that served as the basis for the leadership presentations he delivered throughout the world.Powell’s short-but-sweet rules such as “Get mad, then get over it” and “Share credit,” are illuminated by revealing personal stories that introduce and expand on his principles for effective leadership: conviction, hard work, and above all, respect for others. In work and life, Powell writes, “It is the human gesture that counts.”A compelling storyteller, Powell shares parables both humorous and solemn that offer wise advice on succeeding in the workplace and beyond. “Trust your people,” he councils as he delegates presidential briefing responsibilities to two junior aides. “Do your best--someone is watching,” he advises those just starting out, recalling his own teenage summer job shipping cases of soda. Powell combines the insight he gained serving in the top ranks of the military and in four presidential administrations, as well as the lessons learned from his hardscrabble upbringing in the Bronx and his training in the ROTC. The result is a powerful portrait of a leader who was reflective, self-effacing, and grateful for the contributions of every employee, no matter how junior.Powell’s writing--straightforward, accessible, and often very funny--will inspire, move, and surprise readers. Thoughtful and revealing, his book is a brilliant and original blueprint for leadership.
