Life Lessons from Miss Mattie - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Questions: How does a single mother of five, eight years apart, succeed against all odds in raising those five to be significant contributors to our society? While teaching in rural Georgia during extreme racial segregation and hatred, how does she keep her four boys and one girl on paths toward success?

The Answer: Life Lessons From Miss Mattie heralds the life of a most incredible woman, Mattie Stephens. This book lays out eight life lessons Miss Mattie taught her children (Mattie's Kids) and anyone else who would listen. Those lessons would serve her children and others well in approaching life with confidence and hope.

Mattie and her family possessed some of the necessities of life, but few of the niceties. What they lacked in material means, Mattie more than made up for in character building assets. With a view toward raising successful children, she applied her life lessons. She moved her family from need to nurture and, in so doing, left the world better off than when she came into it.
