Biz Stone, the co-founder of Twitter, discusses innovation, creativity and the secrets of being a successful entrepreneur, through stories from his remarkable life and career.

THINGS A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME

From GQ's 'Nerd of the Year' to one of Time's most influential people in the world, Biz Stone represents different things to different people. But he is known to all as the creative, effervescent, funny, charmingly positive and remarkably savvy co-founder of Twitter -- the social media platform that singlehandedly changed the way the world works. Now, Biz tells fascinating, pivotal, and personal stories from his early life and his careers at Google and Twitter, sharing his knowledge about the nature and importance of ingenuity today. In Biz's world:

-Opportunity can be manufactured
-Great work comes from abandoning a linear way of thinking
-Creativity never runs out
-Asking questions is free
-Empathy is core to personal and global success

In this book, Biz also addresses failure, the value of vulnerability, ambition, and corporate culture. Whether seeking behind-the-scenes stories, advice, or wisdom and principles from one of the most successful businessmen of the new century, THINGS A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME will satisfy every reader.

MEDIA REVIEWS
Things A Little Bird Told Me is a moving, funny and illuminating life story, and Biz pours himself into the telling, bringing a unique gift of perspective to anyone dreaming of taking risks, changing their lives and changing the world * Arianna Huffington *
In Things A Little Bird Told Me, Biz gives away all his secrets to success. I advised him against it. If you're not inspired and informed by this book, then you haven't read it. * Stephen Colbert *
Biz Stone's anything-but-ordinary journey both surprises and inspires. Things A Little Bird Told Me is a peek into a unique mind that, I'm happy to add, entertains us as well. * Ron Howard *
I'm thrilled that readers of Things A Little Bird Told Me can now draw inspiration from his value and vision. A must-read for anyone who wants to tap their creative potential. * Charles Best, Founder and CEO of DonorsChoose.org *
Most tales of start-up success revolve around a lone genius out-manoeuvring the competition. But the story Biz Stone tells us is a riveting -- and often hilarious -- break from that tradition: a story of collaboration, sharing, and the power of networks. * Steven Johnson, author of Where Good Ideas Come From *
