Welcome!


Welcome!! My name is Paul Lappen. I am in my early 60s, single, and live in Connecticut USA. This blog will consist of book reviews, written by me, on a wide variety of subjects. I specialize, as much as possible, in small press and self-published books, to give them whatever tiny bit of publicity help that I can. Other than that, I am willing to review nearly any genre, except poetry, romance, elementary-school children's books and (really bloody) horror.

I have another 800 reviews at my archive blog: http://www.deadtreesreviewarchive.blogspot.com (please visit).

I post my reviews to:

booklore.co.uk
midwestbookreview.com
Amazon and B&N (of course)
Librarything.com
Goodreads.com
Books-a-million.com
Reviewcentre.com
Pinterest.com
and on Twitter

I am always looking for more places to post my reviews.

Inspire Your Kid to Be the Next Elon Musk

 Inspire Your Kid to Be the Next Elon Musk, Sverre Steensen, Upstart Garage Media, 2021

Part of a series, this book presents lots of activities to help your kids navigate the entrepreneurial world.

What is a better business idea - becoming a blogger or YouTuber? What makes a good logo? Watch movies like "Jerry Maguire" or "Moneyball." What is upselling or cross-selling? Put together your elevator pitch. Create a new logo for McDonald's or Coca-Cola. How do you solve problems of your friends, parents or grandparents? What is your movie popcorn - a product that costs very little to make, but can be sold for a big profit?

This is an excellent book for young entrepreneurs. These activities will get them thinking creatively, even if they never start their own business. Very much worth reading.
