Pierre Deaudelin never learned to read or write. When he was seven years old, he told his grandfather, Elphège Deaudelin (founder of the Hudon & Deaudelin Grocery Company) that he was certain he would never learn. “You’re just like me”,
his grandfather told him, “That’s why you’ll have to be your own boss!”.
Dyslexic and severely myopic, Pierre was often criticized by his teachers who told him all he could do was copy.
This is the tale of an inspiring success which was “Made in China” and imported to North America by a self-made man, wise for his young years. Unassuming yet dynamic, this remarquable individual propelled his com- pany forward from China and into the world beyond.
His enormous success in the auto parts industry is the result of his hard work and determination to overcome his many childhood disadvantages.
From the first page to the last, readers will be not only captivated by the biography itself but also by the moving emotions it evokes.
