From the bestselling authors of The Coffee Bean, inspire and encourage children with this transformative tale of personal strength.

The Coffee Bean for Kids tells the inspiring story of Gavin, a young boy with the difficult task of starting school in a new town. Gavin's teacher, Mrs. Spring, teaches him the story of the carrot, the egg, and the coffee bean. The environments we find ourselves in, like a pot of boiling, hot water, can change, weaken, or harden us, and test who we truly are. We can be like the carrot that weakens in the pot or like the egg that hardens. Or, we can be like the coffee bean and discover the power inside us to transform our environment. Energized by his teacher's lesson, Gavin embarks on an enlightening journey to transform the world around him.

In The Coffee Bean for Kids, Jon Gordon and Damon West offer lessons to children to help them: impact the environment around them; improve their own outlook; become a leader who creates positive change; make new friends; and become a positive influence by sharing smiles, kindness, and positive energy. Perfect for parents, teachers, and children who wish to overcome negativity and challenging situations, The Coffee Bean for Kids teaches listeners about the potential that each one of us has to lead, influence, and make a positive impact on others and the world.

encourage kids and teens to be better people

They should teach this in school along with coping & life skills. Live the message and teach it to others so that we will have a better world

Inspiring

If this was written when I was a kid, my perspectives as an adult would've been totally different!

But second-guessing is such a waste of time, and I am glad I was able to listen to this as an adult because we still deserve to listen/ read books like this that would remind us that it totally pays to be an optimist. Something that I need to frequently remind myself as an adult. And because this was written for kids, this is also a thoughtful reminder that we should teach them young so that they can create a better world. Cliche as it may sound, but yup, it is what we need now.

A Message Every Child should learn is how to be a coffee bean!

Story is simple and well written so children can understand how they can be a positive influence with their actions.
