Paul Tough
How Children Succeed
Grit, Curiosity, and the HiddenPower o Character
Best-selling author and leading journalist or the
NewYork Times Magazine
and
The New Yorker
reverses threedecades o thinking about what creates successul children.
The story we usually tell about childhood and success is theone about intelligence: success comes to those who score higheston tests, rom preschool admissions to SATs.But in
How Children Succeed
, Paul Tough argues or a verydierent understanding o what makes a successul child. Draw-ing on groundbreaking research in neuroscience, economics, andpsychology, Tough shows that the qualities that matter most haveless to do with IQ and more to do with character: skills like grit,curiosity, conscientiousness, and optimism.
How Children Succeed
introduces us to a new generation o scientists and educators who are radically changing our under-standing o how children develop character, how they learn tothink, and how they overcome adversity. It tells the personalstories o young people struggling to stay on the right side o theline between success and ailure. And it argues or a new way o thinking about how best to steer an individual child — or a wholegeneration o children — toward a successul uture.This provocative and prooundly hopeul book will not onlyinspire and engage readers; it will also change our understandingo childhood itsel.
