About the Book
"A New York Times-bestselling author looks for the meaning of a good life by seeking advice from the very young and the very old"--Book Synopsis
A New York Times-bestselling author looks for the meaning of a good life by seeking advice from the very young and the very old. When his first book tour ended, Brad Montague missed hearing other people's stories so much that he launched what he dubbed a Listening Tour. First visiting elementary schools and later also nursing homes and retirement communities, he hoped to glean new wisdom as to how he might become a better grownup. Now, in this playful and buoyant book, he shares those insights with rest of us --timeless, often surprising lessons that bypass the head we're always stuck in, and go straight to the heart we sometimes forget. Each of the book's three sections begins with the illustrated story of "The Incredible Floating Girl." Brad weaves this story together with lessons of success, fear, regret, gratitude, love, happiness, and dreams to reveal the true reason we are here: to fly, and to help others fly. Beautifully designed and featuring Montague's own whimsical 4-color illustrations that appeal to the kid in all of us, Becoming Better Grownups shares the purpose and meaning we can all discover merely by listening, and reveals that--in a world that seems increasingly childish--the secret to joy is in fact to become more childlike.Review Quotes
"A fantastic, fanciful guide to becoming not only a happier adult but one who gives back and helps the next generation."--Library Journal, starred review

Where do I even start? I LOVE this book! Brad Montague has written this book in a way that grabs your attention and makes you want to keep reading. I honestly would compare him to a modern day Mr. Rogers. This book is definitely relatable and has gotten a few laughs out of me (It's just that relatable!). During this pandemic, the world needs more light, happiness, and hope and this book brings that! It's the book we all need during this scary time. I highly recommend this book
