| Publisher Description: An Editor's Summary "What does it take to be a great parent?" This is one of the most asked yet hardest to answer questions some of us will ever have to answer. For the rest of us, it may be the question that we will never know the answer to. Thank goodness Jamal Adams has asked this question for us and gone through the painstaking task of weeding through all the answers to present us with the only the best and wisest answers to this all-important question. In #30 for 1, Adams uses his outpost in JFK Airport to engage the everyday traveler and glean wisdom that most of us will never learn. The shoeshiner turned sage looks outside of his own life to gather the wisdom and life-lessons from the best teachers, people just like you. J.L. Adams turns the spotlight on everyday people and taps one of richest resources we have... each other. No topic is off limits for Adams style of social journalism. From single parents to multiple divorces to step children, adoption, and even people without kids, J.L. knows what questions to ask and just lets his subjects relax and express their thoughts. #30 for 1 is a refreshing and educational look at the age-old practice of childrearing and family dynamics as only J.L. Adams can deliver. The collection of wisdom and life skills that this book exposes readers to is priceless and must read roadmap to better living. Next time you are in JFK, look for Jamal's shoeshine chair and get ready to have a great conversation and share some wisdom with him. |
