New Children's Picture Book Teaches the Principles of Success from Napoleon Hill, Earl Nightingale and Bob Proctor

NEW YORK, Nov. 17, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- "Why can't the principles for success in life be incorporated into children's picture books?"

If you know anything about those principles, you know "can't" is not an option.  

In The Adventures of Blue Ocean Bob (Vol.1): Blue Ocean Bob Discovers His Purpose (illustrated by Aleksandra Beaucher), Brooks Olbrys, a Manhattan lawyer and investment banker, introduces us to Blue Ocean Bob, a courageous island boy who embarks upon a quest to discover his purpose and much more. Accompanied by Xena, an overly cautious hummingbird, Bob asks the sea creatures to share their secrets to contentment with him. With the help of Al the dolphin and Doc, an elderly turtle, Bob discovers his passion and realizes his purpose to protect the sea and all life within it.

In later volumes in this rhyming picture book series, Blue Ocean Bob learns about the importance of vision, goals, attitude, persistence, confidence, communication, gratitude, and responsibility in carrying out his duties on the Island of Roses. In the final volume, Blue Ocean Bob learns the meaning of success - progressively becoming the marine biologist he yearns to be.  

Bob Proctor, personal development expert and best-selling author of You Were Born Rich, writes: "Brooks Olbrys has done a remarkable job. Blue Ocean Bob provides young minds with positive precepts and powerful lessons that will serve them for the rest of their lives."

Brian Biro, author of Beyond Success, writes: "Your children will love these delightful stories and the simple but profound principles they reveal will be with them for a lifetime!"

Brooks Olbrys is a graduate of Stanford University, the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts and UC-Berkeley's Law School. He is a partner at investment bank Ion Partners in New York.
