Schools of Fish!

This book is based on the Fish Philosphy that began in a fish market & has been used to help build successful businesses with caring employees. The same is true of Schools of Fish! except this book is centered around, you guessed it, schools.
The ideas in the book are creative & the book gets you pumped up for the school year at hand. I have found myself going back through the book to re-read things I remembered.
On the down side a lot of the suggestions are difficult to keep tabs on or keep up with in the already jam packed school day.

Such a fascinating book! It was hard to put down. The fact that it is largely based on real life people who experienced these horrors makes it even more chilling. Great read!

It's shorter than the book it's based on but that's to be expected. However, a lot of scenes I like that featured the relationship between the parents and their children were cut. Oh well, I still enjoyed it.

I completely loved this book. It’s such an easy to follow read and I was drawn in by the characters. Knowing it’s based on true events makes it even more intense. I highly recommend this book for anyone with an interest in the war or true stories.

A great thriller based on the book by John Grisham. A kid witnesses the suicide of a lawyer for the mafia and gets caught up in a case to bring them down....if the mafia don't get him first. Great film.

Again. I love it.
I watched film in my early years of high school not knowing it was based on a book.
So, now I am going to read the book and I am scared it won't be the same as the film, but will be even better! Fingers crossed ?

"A brilliant Pulitzer Prize-winning book about how the modern world was formed, analyzing how societies developed differently on different continents. I like how this is written from a biologist’s point of view rather than purely based on history or anthropology."

"Maybe the greatest novel ever written, but I haven’t read them all! It’s all of humankind head-on by Dostoevsky. A mix of sadism and humor. In Poland I shot a movie by Andrzej Wajda based on this great book."

I loved how the book is based in the modern day then moved to the 1960s talking about A young women (0 more)
I think that the jump to the 1960s was a bit confusing and I don't understand why the prologue was in modern day. (0 more)
