Guided by Life itself, they unlock the mystery of life piece by piece, learning to deal with everyday issues haunting both older and younger generations, such as unfulfilled expectations, worry, fear, lack of confidence, and nonconformity.

It was a pleasure reading this book and learning a lot of experience that almost all of us go through as a child or parent. The characters in the book can be easily related to our life's. How parents go to lengths in supporting their kids, no matter what they plan to do in their life. The book can be read by both kids and parents and get inspired by the situations presented in the book.
I am also pleased to know that the proceedings from the book will be used to support girls education, it is an excellent and commendable effort from the author.

Short and easy read for all age groups
The book provides greater sense of clarity for many that go through complex and frustrating experiences as part of life. It challenges the burden of social norms and fear we all live under. It demonstrates how shifting perspective can help release anger and resentment that’s keeping one from thriving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Answer life’s call
Such a thought-provoking read! It made me retrospect on the past decisions in my life and I wonder if I ever bothered to focus on “life’s call”. The author has conveyed the idea to connect to your shadow self so smoothly through such a simple story. Quick read, yet powerful.
The book mentions about all the proceeds going towards the girl education. The story relates to it well in helping a girl recognize her ambitions and in standing up for herself to achieve them. Enjoy the story and support a noble cause.
4.0 out of 5 stars NIce Read to remind what is important in life
This book is a quick and easy read and something you definitely read over and over again. We all know the important things in life but seem to forget it as we have busy schedules, family drama and other things taking us away from what is truly important. Don't expect suspense or a thriller, but just down to earth meaning of life and what to treasure during our short time on Earth. Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed.
5.0 out of 5 stars The Simplicity with which the book conveys its idea is amazing

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful read - listening to that inner voice in each one of us
A wonderful book that helps one understand how critical it is to listen to that inner voice as we go through this wonderful journey called LIFE. It focuses on the challenges each member of a family encounters as they go through the various stages of their Lives. The story let’s us know that the answers are there - if we just take the time to listen to that inner voice. While the book is one of fiction - it has philosophical and life lessons weaved into a beautiful story.
