One Word for Kids: A Great Way to Have Your Best Year Ever

By Jon Gordon, Jimmy Page, Dan Britton

Book Overview

From Jon Gordon, author of the international bestseller The Energy Bus, comes a charming fable that can be read and shared by everyone.

If you could choose only one word to describe your best year ever, what would it be? Love? Fun? Believe? Brave? It's probably different for everyone. How you find your word is just as important as the word itself. And once you know your word, what do you do with it? In One Word for Kids, bestselling author Jon Gordon--along with coauthors Dan Britton and Jimmy Page--asks these questions to children and adults of all ages, teaching an important life lesson in the process.

This engaging, fully illustrated fable follows Stevie, a young boy falling asleep on the first day of school. His teacher gives the class an assignment: to find the one word that will help them have their best school year ever. To discover their one word, they must look inside themselves, look up, and look around. At home, Stevie is upset because he can't find his word. After his dad offers some helpful advice, Stevie excitedly begins the quest for his word. His search tells him a lot about himself, what he loves, and what is important to him. Quick and easy to read, yet powerful in its message, this delightful story:
