Publisher's summary

To become our best selves, we need to be inspired…. and that’s true for our kids too. If you want your boys to truly learn the life lessons you’ve been trying to teach them, read on….

As parents, we sometimes forget how hard it is to be a kid in a world built for adults. We find ourselves endlessly repeating the same instructions…. and often they seem to fall on deaf ears.

Boys have a particularly hard time with this. After all, the messages they get from the media tell them that men are tough, and this teaches them to push down their emotions and present a hard front.

But your child is nothing short of AMAZING. He’s Affectionate, Motivated, Artistic, Zestful, Insightful, Natural, and Generous...with a unique personality that will take him far.

The key to making sure his personality shines and he grows up able to navigate the world while still being true to himself and his feelings? Understanding himself and nurturing a desire to grow.

But this isn’t something you can just tell a child.… He needs to see it and come to that understanding on his own. And the best way to do that is through relatable stories that inspire him to push himself and get to know the person he’s becoming.

In this unique approach to social education, your child will understand why you tell him to say "please" and "thank you". He'll be inspired to explore his creativity with an awareness of those around him. He’ll feel empowered to step outside of his comfort zone. And much more!

Within these captivating stories designed to inspire and empower, your child will discover:

  • Why manners are so much more than "rules"–and what doors they can unlock when he makes them a part of his life
  • How to enjoy imaginative play in a way that considers others and nurtures awareness of the world around him
  • How to embrace new challenges (even if they’re scary)–and the advantages he’ll gain when he does
  • The value of patience…and an inspirational story to plant the seed that cultivates it
  • Why it’s okay to be afraid–and how to handle his fear like a superhero
  • Friendship lessons that will help him navigate relationships for the rest of his life
  • A heartwarming collection of characters whose stories will inspire your child to push himself

And much more.

If you’re tired of telling your child the same thing over and over again, hoping it will eventually sink in and he’ll tidy his room or thank Grandma properly for his birthday present, it’s time to try a new tactic.

Let him discover the importance of all of those lessons you’ve been trying to instill in him for himself. You’ll be astounded by the difference when he makes those choices independently.

Give your son the inspiration he needs to become the incredible person you know he has inside him: Scroll up and click “Add to Cart” right now.

Fun collection of stories about exceptional boys!

This was a very fun, cute collection of stories about exceptional boys that I enjoyed listening to with my own exceptional boys (my 10-year-old and 9-year-old sons). We especially enjoyed the very first story, about the ill-mannered boy who has a scary experience and changes his ways.

Loved the fun storytelling

This book reminded me of listening to cassette tapes every evening back in my childhood that helped shape me as the father of 5 I am today. It is so important for boys today to be reminded of values they should live by. This audiobook didn't disapoint and I loved the way the narrator changed voices to describe different characters as they learned tales of bravery, friendship and self-belief

Inspirational Stories for Boys

These stories are a learning experience for boys to inspire compassion, inclusiveness and acceptance. All of the stories are memorable with special attention to teach boys respect for others. The story that resonated with me the most was Taisun’s Bamboo Garden. In this age of technology, many have developed the idea of having things done in an instant. The bamboo garden grew slowly and was amazing and strong because of the length of time it took for it to flourish. Boys learn from this story that good things take time and patience. The story about the Treehouse Club is memorable in that boys learn how to open up to discover new friends and develop relationships with like-minded peers or just be inclusive to new kids at school. This book can serve as a great teaching tool for story time for kids, too. I highly recommend this book.

Great tool for parents

This audiobook is perfect for parents who want their boys to learn important life lessons in a fun and relatable way. It can be hard for kids to remember what we tell them, especially boys who feel they need to be tough all the time. Instead of just repeating instructions, this book uses stories to inspire boys to make good choices on their own. They’ll learn why manners are important, how to be creative and aware of others, and why trying new things is good, even if they’re scary. They’ll also understand patience, handling fear like a superhero, and making friends. If you’re tired of repeating yourself, this audiobook will help your child understand and value the lessons you’ve been teaching him, leading to positive changes in his behavior.
