I really wanted to like this book and found the first few chapters really interesting, but I just could not connect with this author at all. Don‘t get me wrong, the organization is incredible I just couldn‘t read anymore and bailed on it halfway in.

Promise of a Pencil: How an Ordinary Person Can Create Extraordinary Change (Bound for Schools and Librarie) | Adam Braun

One of the very few non fiction book I actually finished. Love the way the book was written, like story telling. It was almost as if I wasn‘t reading a non fiction and maybe that‘s why I finished it.

BookishMe Received the package! Journals are visually Amazing... @GatheringBooks LOVE LOVE your printouts!! Joy of BookMail has just multiplied manifold 💗💗 7y

Trashcanman I'm left handed, how are they different from regular ones? I'm interested. 7y
Crazeedi Well , they dont leave Mark's on the side of my hand when writing. Also the sharpener is lefty, the one pencils writing on it you can read when holding in left hand. They have different hardness of leads. I haven't used them all yet, so I can update you more as I use 7y
Crazeedi The site is cwpencils.com of you love pencils you will like. 7y
Crazeedi @Trashcanman they're just cool 7y
Trashcanman They seem cool, my niece told me there's a left handed only store in San Francisco. They actually ask you to write on paper to prove your left handed before you enter. Lefties only, that's about the weirdest segregation I've heard of in my life. Lol. 7y
Crazeedi O my, that's pretty crazy!!! 7y

I had no idea what to expect since I judged this book totally by its cover, but I loved it and am so glad I read it. This is a great read for anyone with big dreams and burning passion for purpose. Loved it.
