76 years ago (age9) a Pullman Porter, by the name of Mr. Ross, gave me a book about the adventures of Matthew Henson (a north pole explorer) which LIBERATED MY MIND to think outside of the box that I, and so many others were confined during the 1930’s & 40’s… Again, Thank you much Mr. Ross. Bottomline: GIVE A BOOK that’ll enhance a young mind and encourage them to pursuit their dreams.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/yourstore/pym/ref=pd_pyml_rhf
