Though geared for people in business, I initially asked for this title quite selfishly to share with my son. Smart, funny, handsome (if I do say so myself); he often questions himself. Selling himself short, he could brush up on some "people skills" as well.

Reading it through the lense of a mom looking for tips to help her child, I'm sure I read it differently than another reader who picked it up for business purposes. Either way, The 11 Laws of Likability is specific and helpful. Told through a useful vignette at the beginning of each chapter immediately following a quote from a famous health professional, Lederman then details concrete examples and exercises. Her conversational tone allows her readers to read with ease and pick up bits of gold along the way. In fact, I highlighted quite a few passages to discuss with my son very soon.
