Tracking Wonder is an invaluable guide for honing our curious minds and growing into our strongest selves.” —Marc and Angel Chernoff, New York Times bestselling authors of Getting Back to Happy, 1000+ Little Things Happy Successful People Do Differently, and 1000+ Little Habits of Happy, Successful Relationships

Consultant, speaker, and trainer Jeffrey Davis uses captivating stories and imagery to show how anyone can learn to reawaken their childhood openness to life’s promise. His consistent vocal clarity and slow pacing make his ideas clear, and after performing the first few chapters a bit stiffly, he finds a rhythm and spontaneity that sound very much in sync with his message. He wants listeners to rediscover their youthful curiosity and creative fearlessness. The stories he draws from his own life, the lives of others, and from literature are finely drawn and quite touching. With vocal sincerity that pairs nicely with his provocative exercises and heartfelt advice, this is an affecting listening experience that should improve the life of anyone who hears it.
