"My father often taught me that common sense is not always common practice.  In other words, things that people know to be right and true are not always followed or practiced in real life.  This little book offers pure wisdom and insight into what we should be and how we should act.  It's basic lessons, if followed, will lead to a better, happier, more peaceful life."
Sean Covey, International and New York Times Best Selling author of The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens and The 7 Habits of Happy Kids

"50 Lessons Every Wise Mother Teaches Her Son is such a great little book of wisdom.  As an author and previous single mother, I encourage all of my readers to use many of the words in this book -- from utilizing time wisely, the importance of forgiveness, dreams, ideas and more.  It may be small, but don't let that fool you!  Matshona uses these lessons to help mothers encourage their sons to live, love, and be the best they can be."
