It may be something said or done by an adult who hardly thinks about it: a hug, a compliment, an intriguing question, a sincere applause. But in that moment, the child discovers who they are, what is important to them, why they matter, and sometimes even what their destiny will be. Most of us want to help encourage and build into this next generation, most of us see the need all around, but we just have no idea where to begin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow, with this book, you know where to begin and you know that it only takes \u003ci\u003eJust a Minute\u003c\/i\u003e.
