He and his friends got into a great deal of mischief when he was growing up in Vermont. He spent his young adult years wandering from one job to another -- cowboy, actor, fruit picker - Paul Harris tried them all. But then he settled down and became the founder of the premier service organization, Rotary International, which boasts over one million members in over one hundred countries. Harris' story is inspiring, not only for the great achievements of the organization he founded, but also for the fact that he was a flawed figure. As a boy who overcame faults in himself, he serves as a model for children who might feel that a hero like George Washington or Abraham Lincoln is too perfect for an ordinary child to be able to emulate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen President of her local Rotary Club, Irene Herz learned a great deal about the fine work Rotary International has done since its founding in 1905. Realizing with surprise that there was no book for children about its founder, she decided to write one herself. Irene Herz has been a children's librarian, and a manager of internet development. She currently works as a freelance web designer and devotes her spare time to Rotary and to the Taconic Opera, of which she is a member. Ms. Herz is the author of one previous children's book, Hey, Don't Do That!, and several short stories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.13 x 8.5 x 5.51 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 05, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52688197484851,"sku":"9781451508246","price":16.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/LaNQ_U4-DR9781451508246.webp?v=1763005856","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/paul-harris-grow-up-a-book-for-children-about-the-founder-of-rotary-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
