This book is a wonderful introduction to business and entrepreneurship for teen readers. While Bridges’ unique voice is a bit lost in the translation to the written page, his story isn’t! Mo and his co-author (his mother Tramica!) use Mo’s youngful success in his home state of Tennessee and then his national television appearances on Steve Harvey’s show and Shark Tank to draw the reader in. The authors motivate their young audience to believe they can succeed as Mo did if willing to learn from failure and follow the BOWS acronym: B= believe in yourself, O= take the opportunity to give back, W= work hard, and S = seek support.
Confident readers looking for how-to-improve-your-hustle advice will appreciate this book. And although they may balk at the “corniness,” Mo’s success is undeniable. --Jessica Fenster-Sparber
