This book of inspiration and encouragement for graduates blends beautiful, contemporary color photos with thoughtful yet lighthearted words of wisdom. It makes that perfect extra gift for young men and women as they leave school to face challenging and exciting futures. Typical of the book’s contents is a dramatic photo of a tropical coastline with windblown trees and heavy skies. Its caption describes a wise man as “One who sees the storm coming before the clouds appear.” An image of tire tracks extending across open beach is accompanied by Ralph Waldo Emerson’s advice: “Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” Additional quotations on two-page spreads include inspiring thoughts from Benjamin Franklin, Eleanor Roosevelt, Anatole France, and others. Each stimulating reflection is complemented with a brilliant color photo that will evoke a pensive mood. Here is a small but thoughtful gift that will be appreciated and re-read many times by the high school and college graduates who receive it. Full-color photos on every two-page spread.
