so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️I didn‘t have any issue with the message of this book - I almost fully agree with his premise that we can choose to be unoffendable, reacting to people‘s anger with love.The reason I didn‘t love this one is because it felt very repetitive, &there were moments that felt like Hansen didn‘t allow for healthy ways to deal with our anger, it should just be dismissed.So it was fine for what it was, but I wish it had been a bit less…or a bit more.
“Okay. So this may sound like the dumbest thing you‘ve ever read, but here goes: you can choose to be unoffendable.”

In spite of all the evidence that humanity has made great strides towards equality, empathy, and self-awareness, the most powerful country in the world once again stands for oppression, sexism, racism, and corruption.
I am as surprised as I am not at all.
And yet, my heart is broken.
I am Canadian, so while today's very big and very important US election will impact my country, the fact is I have absolutely no say in what happens down there. All I can do is sit, wait, and hope for the best (so, yeah, KAMALA PLEASE!!). That said, this audiobook is the perfect read while I practice patience. Love and patience to all you American Littens today 💖 vote, vote, vote!
pickGreat for younger students trying to balance their emotions.
As someone who feels like everything needs to be perfect, this is a cute book to remind us that not everything works out how you think it might and that's okay.
