Readers will find enlightening insights ("Wisdom begins in wonder"— Socrates), stirring calls to action ("Leap and the net will appear"—John Burroughs), and stimulating encouragements ("Be curious, not judgmental"—Walt Whitman) beautifully illuminated on every page. A delightful reminder to get out there and make the most of life, Whatever You Are, Be a Good One is perfect for recent graduates, creative thinkers, and anyone looking for a little inspiration.

      I love quotes and there are some great ones here. I liked the artwork but the hand-lettering was difficult to read at times. Very easy read.
    • 5/5
      This is a wonderful little "coffee table" book. It is a series of hand lettered quotes and pictures mean to inspire. Very simple and lovely.
