Reviews
It is never too early for children to start thinking about right and wrong. WHAT IS RIGHT? stimulates children to ask hard questions. I know. I gave it to my 9 year old grandson and it led to a wonderful discussion.
Prof. Alan M. Dershowitz, Harvard University, Author RIGHTS FROM WRONG
Every child should have the opportunity to learn right from wrong. Etan Boritzer lays out that path with examples written in language that our kids will both understand and love to read. By exposing kids to a strong code of ethics early on, WHAT IS RIGHT? gives the next generation some guidance for tough decisions in the years ahead.
Melanie Sloan, Exec Director, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington
As someone dedicated to promoting ethical leadership and conduct as a foundation for effective and legitimate business practice, it is never too early to initiate the type of reflection and introspection prompted by WHAT IS RIGHT? This insightful and age appropriate book can help begin to instill critical thinking and decision making in our children. Imagine the state of business practice today if all organizational members would never stop asking this big, big question.
