Dr. Suess'  Oh the Places You'll Go.  This book is wonderful for anyone from kindergarten to retirement.  I have heard it read by a company CEO at a college Career Day, at a high school graduation, on a TV series to a child who suffered a family tragedy.  I have given it to my nephews upon their high school graduations (with a $100 check).  I own it myself.  Wonderfully inspiring book.
