About this title

Synopsis

A perfect gift for teens and young adults!           

Are there things you want your children or grandchildren to know about your values and your testimony? Mitt Romney has often wished his great-grandfather, Parley P. Pratt, had left him such individual counsel. Motivated by this desire, Ann and Mitt Romney candidly share their lessons of a lifetime through brief bits of wisdom for their grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and beyond

From their insights about the “Five Big Years” (ages 16 to 20), to their beliefs about God and church, to marriage and raising a family, and finally to what constitutes success and what builds character, the Romneys inspire readers to be better tomorrow than they are today. Their vulnerable authenticity will inspire you to leave a legacy of values, love, and wisdom for your loved ones in the envelope and stationery included with this small, giftable treasure.

About the Author

Mitt Romney earned a bachelor of arts in English from Brigham Young University and a joint JD-MBA from Harvard University. He was raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, and served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in France. He was a cofounder of Bain Capital, a highly profitable private equity investment firm. He served as President and CEO of the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the 2002 Winter Olympics. Romney was elected governor of Massachusetts in 2002, became the Republican Party’s nominee for president of the United States in the 2012 election, and was elected as a U.S. Senator from Utah in 2018. He married Ann Davies in 1969, and they have five sons.

Ann Romney received a bachelor of arts degree in French from Brigham Young University and was awarded an honorary doctorate from Southern Utah University in 2014. As the first lady of Massachusetts, she worked to focus attention on the challenges facing at-risk youth and served as the Governor’s Liaison to the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1998, she has volunteered much of her time to raise awareness of the disease and founded the Ann Romney Center for Neurological Diseases at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. She places primary importance on being a wife, a mother of five sons, and a grandmother.
