Blanket fort

There once was a little girl. She was a curious soul. In her dungarees and high top boots, she was always prepared for adventure. Angie was painfully shy, perplexed with all the questions of life that were buried deep inside her. Why are we here? What are we made of? How is everything connected?

To their amazement, the book became an overnight sensation, and edition after edition rolled off the presses to keep up with the increasing public demand. Now to Win Friends and InfEuence People took its place in publishing history as one of the all-time international best-sellers.
