All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten: Uncommon Thoughts On Uncommon Things by Robert Fulghum (1988) "Most of what I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday school. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours...Take a nap every afternoon...Be aware of wonder." This book began as Robert Fulghum's attempt to write a simple credo. In his capacity as a Unitarian minister, he shared his statement of belief with his congregation. 196 pp.
