Excellent Account of Ben Carson

We borrowed this book from the library for a report my son needed to do for school. It's such an inspirational story and an easy read for children that am purchasing this book for our home library.

Ben Carson Biography

I work at a shelter for homeless families. We have chosen this book as an encouraging, inspirational book for our youth, and it has been very successful in getting and keeping their attention.

He Brought Another Into Medicine for the Future

My daughter read "Gifted Hands" 3 years ago.She has become a 4.0 GPA student. She is studying so hard that her teacher's asked us what was driving her? We told them that she read a book and just took it to heart. She is totally taken with becoming a Pediatric Neurosurgeon. All our daughter talks about is (when) she becomes a Dr. and helps the children she will be fullfilled in what her life is meant to be on this earth.It is quite something since we adopted her out of a ghetto typeenvironment 4 years ago. She had only been in school 46 days in her entire life of 9 years of age. We burned the midnight oil with her and she blossomed. "A mind and a child are a terrible thing to waste". Thank God that we got her and she is on her way.Thank you , Dr. Carson, you have done a great thing and continue to be a great motivator to those who will listen.
