1.0 out of 5 starsDIDN'T LIKE THE PARABLE STYLE OF THIS BOOK
ByAmazon Customeron April 5, 2012
Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
I had read a short part of this book on-line before purchasing it and was eagerly waiting for it's arrival. However, once I began reading it further and realized it was more of a "story", I instantly regretted buying this book. I guess other people may appreciate the parable way of writing but if you are like me and want more facts and helpful information rather than a stories as examples of how to apply the "Don't eat the marshallmallow" method, you will want to skip this book. A disappointment for me.

I'd heard of the marshmallow study but did not realise there was a book all about the theory, but am so excited that I found it! This book is just great and gets the marshmallow story across so well

It's not a big book, but the message is clearly delivered.

"Don't Eat The Marshmallow" .. Delayed gratification is the key.

This short read contains excellent considerations on everyday life. It breaks the lessons down in an engaging parable. It reinforces the main points to aide in committing the lessons to memory.

4.0 out of 5 starsPractical Motivation
ByB. Wilkinson November 9, 2011
Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
This is similar to the One Minute Manager, Who Moved My Cheese? and other similar parables. Quick read and very motivating. I highly recommend it for teachers to give to students in grades 4-8. It gives them an excellent start on the road to controlling their finances (and themselves)!
