What Do You Do With An Idea?

What Do You Do With An Idea is a children's picture book written by Kobi Yamada in 2013.  This book is extremely interesting as it follows a little boy as he goes from having an idea, to nurturing it, to watching his dream unfold before his very eyes.  This simple and short story portrays such a strong message for readers as it teaches them to never give and always follow their dreams.  One of the best aspects about this story is that although the sentence structure is very simple and easy to follow, it truly is a story for children and adults of all ages.  The positive vibes that I recieved while reading this book caused me to instantly read it again and even read it to my friends who are entrepreneurship majors as the theme portrayed throughout the text is very deep in the sense that it can be extended to apply to everyone.  This book is also extremely notable as it received a gold medal for Recognizing Excellence in Independent Publishing. As an extremely inspirational text, this book could be incorporated into many aspects of the curriculum or even stand alone as a read aloud for students as they will instantly fall in love with it just as I did.
