Eleven-year-old George Washington Black—or Wash—a field slave on a Barbados sugar plantation, is initially terrified when he is chosen as the manservant of his master’s brother. To his surprise, however, the eccentric Christopher Wilde turns out to be a naturalist, explorer, inventor, and abolitionist. Soon Wash is initiated into a world where a flying machine can carry a man across the sky, where even a boy born in chains may embrace a life of dignity and meaning, and where two people, separated by an impossible divide, can begin to see each other as human.

Mostly great, anti climactic ending.

Wow. Vivid storytelling set in historically realistic setting. So many metaphors in the dialogue. But the story has trouble coming to a satisfying end.

Entitlemania is an epidemic. Well-intentioned parents across the country are enabling a ''me'' generation of children who lack the wisdom and satisfaction of accomplishment that only struggle and adversity can bring. A groundbreaking book, Entitlemania sheds important light on an increasingly pervasive social trend affecting children at every age - and at every income bracket. Entitlemania will provide practical strategies like creating boundaries, walking your talk, and allowing children to fend for themselves.

Not that insightful
Revisado: 05-28-20
I was expecting a lot of ideas to help in parenting at all stages of childhood development. It didn’t really touch on kids younger than teens that much. Plus he didn’t really back much with research. Sure he used examples from his practice advising the ultra rich but these examples were often not that relevant. There were a few good chapters but the whole thing could be boiled down to “don’t give your kid a new car for their sixteenth birthday.”
