Product Description
This book, produced to inspire everyone but especially those involved in scouting, focuses on the 12 values of Scout Law: trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. Abraham Lincoln, Mark Twain, Booker T. Washington, Henry David Thoreau, Aristotle, Emily Dickinson, and Theodore Roosevelt are some of the many timeless voices who offer hope and wisdom to readers of all ages. Here's a sample: "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything." "Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which one has overcome while trying to succeed." "We are what we repeatedly do."
