If you have a short attention span, or if you are simply short on time then I feel
this book is for you. In these hazy, frizzy days of Summer The Portable Life 101
is quite comfortable enough to curl up with.. whether you're baking on the beach
or revving up the engines to take a road trip.
I love the easy-to-read big print and the easy-to-digest lessons painted on each
page.
Portable Life 101 is like having access to the 'Cliff Notes' to Life 101. Except,
here, you won't feel like you're cheating by taking shortcuts the author himself
is offering you! :)
When Peter's subtitle states "179 essential lessons," he cuts straight to the point. Each
page is adorned with an awesome quote ranging from the quirky Woody Allen to the
amazing Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Peter's reasoning ranges from why traditional schooling doesn't really work, to the
process of really learning, plus three wisdomous rules for life in general. Sometimes
Peter sums it up in just one simple yet salient sentence, i.e. Lesson 177: "Loving
is the greatest teacher."
Just as this review is short and sweet, so is Peter's book!!! In a word, this book
rocks!
