    About this ebook

    In "A Spark Neglected Burns the House," Tolstoy examines the consequences of neglecting a small problem until it becomes a much larger one. He argues that often times, people ignore minor issues until they become major disasters. This is because they fail to see the potential seriousness of the problem or they are simply too lazy to deal with it. As a result, they end up paying a much greater price in the end.
