I am a firm believer in philosophy that the best lessons are learned from your own experience, so even though I understand the meaning of the author's good intentions, I think it won't do much good, since the rebellious stage of maturity will prevent youngsters from hearing. Still, congratulations on BOTD!

Nnenna Uboma's book Lessons to My Younger Self is packed with her wealth of experience helping young people make decisions about their careers, develop their personalities, strengthen etc. This little how-to book will definitely come in handy for them. This book might be a stop for them. All of the readers who want to overcome their make broad decisions will find a brilliant path through the author's diligent work. Fantastic work, in fact!

Latest Review: Ghost With Two Hearts by michael r french

Post by Janet Kimetto »

This book contains lessons that the author feels would have been helpful to her younger self and that she believes would be helpful to young adults. It isn't for me, but many would appreciate the lessons on career, leadership, and navigating the digital world. Congrats on BOTD!

Latest Review: The Judge part 1 and 2 by Ian RB Morris

This book sets out lots of life lessons as one per page with a corresponding illustration and a bit of creativity in the relevant highlights of the narrative. I do think some require additional thought to understand the meaning and so younger audiences may find them a little cryptic.

Hi @AbrahanOzo, I just read your comments on the official review of " Lessons to My Younger Self" and I encourage you to read the entire 102-page book. The lessons you listed are the proverbial tip of the iceberg. There are so many excellent lessons included and the illustrations really enhance each lesson. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @ Ashwani Dhiman Dhiman, I just read your comments on the official review of "Lessons to my younger self" and I need to suggest that you do not copy lists of possible lessons but rather focus on what is actually happening and select the lessons that your review would help the readers resolve the issues that would help a young person not make the same mistakes one made at that age. Then the story could be used as a guide for young people or used by parents to guide their children or seniors to learn how to use the internet. @Mrlefty0706
