Here's a book to take you on an enchanting and enriching journey through the upside and the downside of what it means to be human - our hopes and our fears, our strengths and our weaknesses, our highs and our lows. One alphabet takes you from 'Adventure' to 'Zen' via 'Daring', 'Enthusiasm' and 'Friendship'. Flip the book the other way around, and a second alphabet takes you from 'Anger' to 'Zen' via 'Depression', 'Ego' and 'Fear'. This is a beautifully designed and illustrated book that will appeal even to those who don't usually go in for the more cutesy brands of self-esteem related publications. Highly recommended. Pan MacMillan, 2009. Softcover with dust jacket.
