Written by two Ivy League graduates who struggled with learning disabilities and ADHD, Learning Outside the Lines teaches students how to take control of their education and find true success with brilliant and easy study suggestions and tips.

Every day, your school, your teachers, and even your peers draw lines to measure and standardize intelligence. They decide what criteria make one person smart and another person stupid. They decide who will succeed and who will just get by. Perhaps you find yourself outside the norm, because you learn differently--but, unlike your classmates, you have no system in place that consistently supports your ability and desire to learn. Simply put, you are considered lazy and stupid. You are expected to fail.

Learning Outside the Lines is written by two such "academic failures"--that is, two academic failures who graduated from Brown University at the top of their class. Jonathan Mooney and David Cole teach you how to take control of your education and find true success--and they offer all the reasons why you should persevere. Witty, bold, and disarmingly honest, Learning Outside the Lines takes you on a journey toward personal empowerment and profound educational change, proving once again that rules sometimes need to be broken.

Wonderful Blanket!
Size: 50"x60", Color: Chocolate Brown, Size: 50"x60", Color: Chocolate Brown
My favorite blanket yet! It’s soooo soft, it does not shed and the weight is very nice. It’s warm and plenty big enough. It’s looks pretty too. Both sides are the same, the perfect thickness.

UN‐FREAKIN-BELIEVABLE!!!
Size: 50"x60", Color: Dark Brown
I think of myself as a Connoisseur of Faux Fur Blankets folks so my opinions on this blanket should be taken seriously. I have acquired at least 20 faux fur blankets over the last 15ish years-- it's a problem & I admit it. I've purchased small ones, big ones, cheap-expensive- i have earned my knowledge!! This Blanket is hands down THE NICEST! Holy crap is it soft!! BUTTER!! It is made so Beautifully, it's just very special. I love the bit of stretch it has, it adds to the aesthetic somehow. The color is a rich beautiful Brown, i mean it even LOOKS soft--it's just awesome. It is a perfect weight, not too heavy or too light,, Cozy as a MoFo! Just buy it, get it, live happily ever after with it--you won't regret it. *****UPDATE***** 12/22/25 - I've had this Blanket for almost a year..It's just as soft & beautiful as the day I got it! It has NEVER shed so I don't understand reviews stating it does? When washing these Blankets DO NOT USE WARMTH OF ANY KIND! Washer OR Drier!! The fabric is very delicate so heat will ruin it--even the slightest. Wash on COLD only, and only use AIR drier settings (fluff), NO HEAT FOLKS! It takes about 4 or 5 times to Dry on air only but it is worth the extra time when it comes out perfect. One more thing, NEVER- EVER- EVERRR USE FABRIC SOFTNER. It is wax which will coat all those Beautifully soft fibers and ruin them for good. If you follow these pretty easy suggestions your blankets will stay as awesome as the day you got 'em. I hope this helps. OH.. & GET THE BLANKET!!!!

Gorgeous & so soft!
Size: 50"x60", Color: Olive Green
This is hands down the most beautiful throw I’ve ever had. It’s so soft & luxurious on both sides, which is hard to find. It’s warm but not too warm ,just perfect! I got the olive green & it’s a beautiful shade, not too yellow or muddy. I don’t know why people report shedding issues, I wonder if there were some bad batches? Mine hasn’t shed at all. Just washed it for the first time, came out perfect. No lint at all in dryer screen.

For a luxurious throw,
Size: 50"x60", Color: Grey
I originally bought this throw just to have something cozy around the house—and I was immediately impressed with how unbelievably soft it is. After owning (and loving) a lot of blankets, I’ve realized most only have that plush, silky feel on one side. This one is different—it’s soft on both sides, with a weight and drape that feels genuinely luxurious. The dark gray color is another standout. It looks elevated and expensive, and it’s held up beautifully through multiple washes without losing that silky texture at all. It honestly feels just as soft as the day we got it, which is rare. But the reason I had to write this review is unexpected. We’ve been sleep training our almost 1.5-year-old son, and this blanket somehow became part of the routine. It lives in his room, draped over the rocking chair for those long middle-of-the-night wakeups. Over time, he started pulling it down and choosing to sleep on top of it… on the floor. We couldn’t tell if he preferred the floor—or the blanket. So I tried something: I put the throw on his bed. And just like that… he started sleeping in his bed. Apparently, this blanket is the key to sleep training. If you’re looking for something soft, durable, and genuinely cozy, this is already a great buy. But if you happen to have a toddler resisting bedtime… this might just be your secret weapon too.

Very soft. Wash only on gentle cycle in cold water and low tumble dry. Fabulous blanket.
Size: 50"x60", Color: Orange
So far so good. It was a little sheddy at first but then I washed it and it was fine. It is super soft even after being washed twice. Several people have commented on how soft it is and stated they thought it was a Minky couture. I washed it on gentle cycle in cold water and dried it on gentle low tumble dry. It does not seem to be shedding now. I washed it a second time and put vinegar in the rinse cycle because supposedly that is supposed to help bind the fibers or something. Still seems to be not shedding. It's probably the softest blanket I have every owned. When I wash it, I will continue to wash it on gentle in cold water and dry on either gentle low tumble dry r just air fluff. I read the heat good make the fibers loose and cause more shedding. If anything changes, I will update.
