Noah Parker, a good-hearted, fun, and likable kid, is both nervous and excited for his first day of middle school. As the school unfolds, Noah and his friends experience the highs and lows and sometimes funny and awkward situations that are part of growing up. Not only is this book an easy and fun read, but it teaches good values, such as kindness, friendship, empathy, and the importance of second chances . Noah learns that although life isn't always fair, good can come from challenging situations. It is during one of these challenging situations that Noah discovers the power of being kind. Noah's pursuit of kindness becomes the backdrop for creating an unlikely friendship and a spectacular school year he and his friends will never forget. Don't forget to leave a review =) I'd recommend this book for all kids approaching middle school age, and anyone who likes children's books. The characters are certain to resonate strongly with kids, as they learn empathy by learning about why bullies are how they are. Hannah Miller is passionate about helping children develop positive character traits such as courage, kindness, and respect. She hopes her work inspires children to achieve their highest goals and to support their peers in doing the same. Hannah is married and has five children.
