About World of Books Ltd West Sussex, United Kingdom
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we're helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.

--Publisher's Weekly
"For those willing to take up the task of teaching ethics, the book provides a practical blueprint for teachers, schools, and parents."
--Booklist
"After the book has inspired you, you can mine the appendices, which include such practical treasures as 'One Hundred Ways to Bring Character Education to Life, ' sample lesson plans, and a list of programs and phone numbers to call when your school is in dire need of civility."
--The American School Board Journal
