How do fearless ideas begin? Travel along with young Bill Gates on
his life's journey full of curiosity, discovery, hard work, and
most important, fearlessness--the inability to see limits. The book
invites young readers to pursue their passions and awaken a sense
of ambition and responsibility for others as they grow. Think
Smart, Be Fearless tells the inspiring story of Bill Gates, one of
America's most fascinating entrepreneurs, starting from his early
years as a precocious, inquisitive child who faced challenges
fitting in with his classmates. Young Bill, known as Trey in his
family, was a bit of a troublemaker, bored at school and prone to
acting out. That all changed in high school with his discovery of
the early world of computers. His instincts immediately told him
that computers were the future. With the support of his family, who
encouraged him to think smart and be fearless, Bill grew to become
a technology visionary, who changed the way everyday people
interact with computers, and a philanthropist whose inability to
see limits is working to reduce poverty and improve global health
worldwide. Complete with back matter that includes a more in-depth
look into Bill Gates's life, a timeline of significant events in
his life and in computer science, and a glossary for inquisitive
kids.
