This book captures the educational journey of a humble boy who once run around on an island and worked his way up to running around on university campuses as a professor. It illustrates the many challenges as a student, as a teacher, and in an educational system with traditional values. It tracks his elementary life, high school life, university life, then his professional life in education. After seeing a system filled with educational limitations, he decided to establish a school to promote child friendly practices and to encourage a small society to change educational practice to that of classrooms conducive to learning. Going through this process alone posted many challenges, but he was very successful. After the success of establishing a school with contemporary practices, far from the norm, the next challenge was to keep the school open. This book serves as motivation to any student, teacher, or leader of education. After reading, one will be inspired to strive to overcome any challenges in education that one may face.
