Life is a rich tapestry of invaluable lessons, and among them, none hold greater significance than those passed down from generation to generation. While parents always intend to bestow upon their children their cherished wisdom, the demands of time and practicality often intervene. As the time comes for children to spread their wings and embark on their own journeys, the lessons learned from their parents become invaluable.

"50 Things I Wish I Told You" is a remarkable compilation that encapsulates these profound intentions. From practical tips on mastering the art of making a bed, ironing a shirt, and securing your first rental flat, to personal guidance on perfecting the perfect handshake and engaging in small talk, this book encompasses a wide range of lessons. These are the lessons that would have been shared had there been more hours in a day.

In addition to offering practical advice, "50 Things I Wish I Told You" also includes delightful guides on curbing bad habits and invaluable tips on keeping a plant alive. Illustrated throughout by the celebrated artist Laura Quick, her characteristic drawings add a poignant and comical touch to the text. This book serves as a source of reassurance, encouragement, enlightenment, and amusement, making it an ideal gift for any parent who may have missed the opportunity to impart all of their wisdom.

Through its pages, "50 Things I Wish I Told You" reminds us of the importance of cherishing the lessons passed down from our parents and the impact they can have on our lives. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of love, guidance, and wisdom, and reminds us to embrace the journey of life with open hearts and minds.
