This book by the best-selling author of The Kid’s Guide to Social Action invites children and teens to explore and practice honesty, kindness, empathy, integrity, tolerance, patience, respect, and more. Quotations and background information set the stage. Dilemmas challenge readers to think about, discuss, and debate positive traits.

True stories profile real kids who exemplify positive traits; resources point the way toward character-building books, organizations, programs, and Web sites.
