Nationally acclaimed speaker and memoir writer Clifton Taulbert presents eight habits that build the essence of social stability. His habits, which are broken down into brief chapters--"A Nurturing Attitude," "Dependability," "Responsibility," "Friendship," "Brotherhood," "High Expectations," "Courage," and "Hope"--may not be stunningly original, yet they reflect a kind of plainspoken "front-porch wisdom" rooted in Taulbert's Southern upbringing. His elders ignored the boundaries of legal segregation and embarked on a campaign to offer a community that embraced the dreams and successes of each child and family. This is an excellent book for young-adult readers who will appreciate the rich, memoir-style storytelling and the simple but genuine lessons of how to be a good person in order to build a more spiritually evolved world. --Gail Hudson
