There is a cute story on Milton Hershey. You can order it from Amazon,
see the following link:

Also, Babe Ruth struck out 1330 times, and I'm sure it is in many books
about him, which I'm sure could also be found on Amazon.

Reading gives you some place to go when you have to stay where you are.

Happy Friday!
I am looking to all of these wonderful voices of experience to help one
of my teachers find a book:
She is looking for a book that tells stories of famous people who
started out in difficult situations or were originally failures in life,
but turned things around to become successful. She wants to use this as
a motivational tool for her 7th grade students.
Thanks so much for an insight you can give me!
