Little Leaders and Their Stories

Book Details
About the Book
Leadership can be learned at any age and children begin to pick up leadership skills early in life. We are leadership consultants and have four children and six grandchildren between us. As we raised and advised our own children, we heard so many stories that we decided to put them in a book for parents to read to their children.
Together, you can discuss and learn essential lessons about how to act like a leader. The stories cover different topics, but the message is that a child can be a leader anytime and anywhere. We hope you enjoy this book as much as we enjoyed writing it and that your children can use the stories to shape their own leadership as they grow and develop.
