Lose Your Cool

Author: Zac Hunter
Pages: 163
Age Group: Anyone who wants to change themselves and the world!!

Genre: Inspiring stories, biography's etc. 

YOU DON'T LOVE MOCHA THE SAME WAY THAT YOU LOVE JESUS.
As a teen today, you probably have plenty of interests and plenty to plug into. In the midst of the constant stimulus- activity's, media, text messages, and social networking- activist and fellow teenager Zach Hunter asks: What consumes the bulk of your time?
How do you zero in on what really matters?

Zach wrote this book to share powerful inspiration from the lives of others and to promote his steadfast belief that his generation is capable of great things- actions that may require shedding conventional notions of what is cool and important - and of choices that can heat up, ignite, and stoke the flame of a deeper passion, the kind of passion that changes the world.
 ARE YOU READY TO LOSE YOUR COOL??     

My Review
What a fabulous book! I can't believe the amount of enthusiasm Zach has! It is great!!! He has inspired me to think about issues i would like to see the end of and also to really get others involved in ending slavery and other injustices.  At the start of the year i brought a sewing machine for a lady in Tibet and it brought her such joy and it also gave me the satisfaction of seeing her smiling face and dinner on her table for both herself her husband son and new baby boy. I am sure this book will get you motivated to change the world and even yourself. I rate it 10 out of 10.
loved it and it was extremely positive and motivating a must read!!!
by the way this is the third book Zach has written his other two books are: loose Be The Change(i did a book review last week!) and Generation Change

Hope you get motivated by these books,
Courtney
