You are an Amazing Boy: A Collection of Inspiring Stories about Courage, Friendship, Inner Strength and Self-Confidence (Motivational Books for Children) Review: I Wish My Parents Had Read This To Me When I Was a Boy - This is honestly one of the best books I've ever seen of its kind. Had this been one of the foundational books that my mom or dad had read to me at bedtime when I was a young boy, this book (especially read to me by them) could have changed the trajectory of my life and saved me literally decades of self-hatred and ineffective therapy. I've rarely encountered ANY book which paints for a boy a picture of the traits inherent within him that are GOOD. I grew up surrounded and bombarded by late '60s/early '70s feminist messages predicated on the idea that men and boys are bad and girls and women were the only ones with the positive traits that the world needed. Wired as a sensitive, intuitive boy, I picked up on the messages that I was inherently bad and that my greatest gift to society would be to elevate and support women ... while determinedly NOT BEING, trying to have my existence have as little impact on women and girls as possible. By age 10, I wanted to die. When a boy hears women saying things within earshot of him like, "Men are the urine on the toilet seat of life" (yes, a woman in a group I was in said that), it's easy for him in his immature understanding to think that the most altruistic thing he could do for the women and girls of the world would be to die. But had my parents had read this life-saving book—YOU ARE AN AMAZING BOY—to me at bedtime, I would have grown up knowing—not in a stuck-up way, but rather in a benevolent way—that I was amazing, strong, capable, loving, that as a boy, I had good, helpful and valuable qualities, qualities that were a BLESSING—NOT a curse— to society, to girls and women, to men and other boys, to animals and the planet. And, had I known these things in the way this miraculous book teaches ... what a gift!! Parents of boys: THIS BOOK IS AMAZING ... TRANSFORMATIONAL. Reading it to your young boy will be one of the greatest gifts you could ever give him (and through him, a gift to every one he'll come into contact with during his lifetime. I cannot recommend this book highly enough! Review: Excelente recomendación para que tu niño pueda practicar más la lectura, es un libro fácil de leer y comprender

Cover has a Nice feel. I’m returning B/C the age group specified is too broad. I bought for 4 year olds, suitable for 8 year olds. Very few pictures.

At first, my son seemed bored as the stories follow a kind of repetitive nature, so i decided not to read them all in one sitting. Now he asks for it repeatedly. Note: He can easily read it himself, but enjoys it being read to him. I like that the book not only gives him more confidence in himself, but also promotes respect for one another.
