I recently had a chance to see the series of Forgotten Wisdom Books. Promising life lessons from a former Marine and retired teacher, these books definitely feel like grandpa sharing what he's learned over the course of his life.
The books focus on lessons like confidence, grit, and responsibility. Sometimes they come across as a little old school, with a blunt, tell-it-like-it-is tone, but they're good for opening up discussions on how things like confidence can show up in real life. Set in the context of grandparents and parents sharing lessons with kids based on real-life situations they encounter, the books have a familiar feel and bold illustrations to highlight the lessons learned. Bonus - each book comes with a patch to help remind readers of the story's main point. (And there's a flag to be found on every page, so it adds a fun little seek-and-find element to the story.
Stephen Clifford is the author of the Forgotten Wisdom Books children’s series, including Nothing Changes If Nothing Changes, Bring Your Own Grit, No One Stands Taller Than You, Stop Existing and Start Living, and Fear Is a Choice.
