    About this ebook

    Wisdoms of the Sparrows is a guidebook for young professionals who are entering the competitive business world.

    By telling a fun and entertaining story about the trials and tribulations of a growing sparrow family, this book conveys the lessons of business in an enjoyable way.

    Each chapter covers a different aspect of the many challenges faced by young professionals who are new to their field.

    Through the wisdoms of the sparrows and the use of ingenious idioms and comparisons, the reader can learn from the nestlings' mistakes, rather than his own.

    If you are still a nestling or about to fledge into your new career, this is the easy-reading guide for you!

    A thoughtful book with artfully formed yet easily understood metaphors about business and the greater meaning of life. An excellent introduction to the business world for young professionals and a valuable reminder for the rest of us.
