—all crucial for pre-teens navigating the path to independence. I appreciated how it balances emotional intelligence with real-world skills, encouraging both courage and self-confidence. My favorite is the author’s analogy about kids as ninjas gathering different gems for self-improvement how they can instill self-belief. It’s an invaluable resource for any parent wanting to equip their child with the skills needed for lifelong success. I highly recommend it.

I got this audiobook for my nephew, and he’s really gotten a lot out of it. It covers important skills in a way that makes sense for his age, without feeling like a lecture. He’s already started using some of the advice, like keeping track of his responsibilities and managing his time better. The narrator’s voice kept it engaging, so he actually enjoyed listening. I’d definitely recommend this for any preteen learning to be more independent!
