Synopsis This fast and fun guidebook was originally written for Japanese children, but it became a huge bestseller once adults got their hands on it. Ken Watanabe, who studied at Harvard and Yale, and worked as a management consultant at McKinsey & Company in the United States, tried to apply some of his expertise towards helping kids develop the tools needed for critical thinking. His simple scenarios and strategies, which are accompanied by fun drawings, make his insightful instructions about how to make beneficial decisions easy to digest and remember. Appealing to adolescents and executives, and everyone in between, Watanabe's useful guide seems likely to become a surprise bestseller.
