WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT “BE A BEACON OF HOPE IN THE WORLD: A MESSAGE TO YOUNG BRITAIN”

“Teach him to close his ears

to a howling mob

and to stand and fight

if he thinks he’s right.

Treat him gently,

but do not cuddle him,

because only the test

of fire makes fine steel.”

• Abraham Lincoln’s letter to his son’s teacher (Stanza 5).

 

COMMENT BY MR CHRIS HOBBS, AN EX- BRITISH POLICE OFFICER ABOUT “BE A BEACON OF HOPE IN THE WORLD: A MESSAGE TO YOUNG BRITAIN”:

“I think your book is excellent. In an ideal world, that book should be given to every head-teacher in the country. If I were a head I’d pick three messages every week and display them prominently, say in the entrance and /or assembly hall so every pupil could see them.

Congratulations.

• Chris”

OTHERS:

• “It has come as a great inspiration in these times of uncertainties and hopelessness.”

• “Very timely…it has come at the right time.”
• “Quite motivational.”
• “Why did you write it?”
