The Tuttle Twins Guide To Inspiring Entrepreneurs

Boyack, Connor,


Throughout history, a certain few people have made risky decisions in an attempt to solve a problem that many people were experiencing, hoping that their new innovation or invention would be able to serve these people and that they--the entrepreneurs, as we call them--would be able to profit in return. These risk-takers are the key drivers of the economy who create jobs and new products and services that make our lives more comfortable and convenient. The world becomes a better place through their efforts. But entrepreneurs don't always succeed. Indeed, their failures teach them powerful (and sometimes hard) lessons that they can learn from. They gain knowledge with each new attempt that makes their future efforts even more fruitful. Their stories can serve as inspiration as you begin to determine your own path in life and whether being an entrepreneur is part of your journey. Entrepreneurs included: Adi Dassler, Brian Chesky & Joe Gebbia, Andrew Mellon, Elijah McCoy, Elon Musk, George Eastman, Hetty Green, Howard Schultz, John Rockefeller, Madam Walker Magatte, Wade Powel Crosley, Steve Jobs, Wally Amos, Walt Disney, and Yvon Chouinard.

The Tuttle Twins Guide To Modern Villains

Boyack, Connor.


Connor Boyack and Elijah Stanfield. Instructional and educational works, juvenile works. What is it about human nature that leads some people to commit unspeakably evil acts? And, perhaps a more important question for each of us, why do so many people submit to or even support these villains? World history sadly offers us a long list of dictators and totalitarian thugs who used their power to steal from and oppress their countrymen—and kill those who defied them. As tragic as these stories all are, they can still offer us lessons to learn from if we try to understand why these people acted the way they did—both those in control and those who were controlled.
