Assume the Worst by Carl Hiaasen and Roz Chast


The subtitle of this book is “The graduation speech you’ll never hear.” But maybe you should!

Partly serious and partly humorous, this delightful, short book offers a way for graduates to view and reflect upon the world they are about to enter. Consider this excerpt from the end of the book. “Read the news. Pay attention. Always aspire to act in a way that cancels out someone else’s cruel or stupid behavior.”
