Why read it?

1 author picked The Rules of a Little Boss as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is such a powerful book for all young boys and girls to read. It's about how to truly love yourself because if you don't love yourself no one else will. It shows that you can be your true self and that self-love is the best love. It's about the author's personal experience as to what she endured growing up as a kid, but this book can also relate to what most teens or young kids go through with bullying, abuse, and more.

From Cynthia's list on Black education, dreams, and self-love.
