Grit is key to helping kids succeed in what they want or need to do—getting good grades, making the sports team, or just building an awesome treehouse. By practicing the skills and activities outlined in this accessible workbook—whether on their own or with you—your child will gain powerful tools to help them thrive well into adulthood.
"The Grit Workbook for Kids is written in a conversational style that is clear, straightforward, and encouraging, but does not talk down to kids. And the wonderful illustrations help to make the book accessible to children. It's a winning combination that makes this an important new contribution to the library of self-help books for young people."
