Tough, Paul

How Children Succeed; Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character - Boston, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company, 2012 - 231 pages - J1 364

Why do some children succeed while others fail? The story we usually tell about childhood and success is the one about intelligence. Paul Tough argues that the qualities that matter most have more to do with character: skills like perseverance, curiosity, conscientiousness, optimism, and self-control.
