## Description

Elbow Grease [Cena, John, McWilliam, Howard] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Elbow Grease

Review: John's personality fills this book along with exceptional images from Howard, his illustrator - It was such a pleasant surprise to see an incredible collaboration from John and his illustrator, Howard McWilliam. A nice blend of colorful images with a heartfelt tale of perseverance, determination, proper use of will and the positive use of the most powerful creative device in the Universe (the mind of every individual). Over twenty years ago, when I trained at Hard Nocks Gym in Amesbury, Mass, which is the oldest running gym in this area. I was to meet John Cena and his brothers, Matt and Dan. What you see is what you get with John and his brothers, which is just great, kind, generous, supportive, old values, regular guys. I had mentioned to John that one of the stories in the book I was writing called 'Mysticism in Newburyport' would have a story called 'The School of Hard Nocks' and would he be alright with me mentioning him. John said 'sure, that would be great'. Most people see John's outward physical accomplishments (Bodybuilding, Wrestling, Movies, etc, etc), but for me, the most impressive quality of John is that he has stayed humble and grateful for all that have helped him to succeed. He never forgot Dave Nock, the founder of Hard Nocks Gym and always remembered his roots. That's the sign of a genuine man of integrity. This book is full of John's beliefs and energy that fueled his success in whatever he does. A great book of reminders for all ages. Peter James Ford

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These books are great!!
*by L***Y on May 8, 2022*

My son loves these books. He actually picked up the third book in the series at the school book fair. One day I was just browsing and noticed that there were two before it and so I bought the them as well. The books can stand alone but they do build on one another so kids can follow the big story. I also love the message of the books, to never give up and always keep trying to be better. I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series.
