Kids Are Tremendous‪!‬

Internationally acclaimed motivational speaker and author Charlie “Tremendous” Jones and award-winning author Bob Kelly combine their talents to present this charming look at childhood by some of history’s most famous personalities. Funny, poignant, illuminating—each quotation casts a bright light on those sparkling diamonds we call kids. Sometimes demanding, always questioning—kids are a constant source of joy to adults of all ages. More than simply a collection of quotations, Kids Are Tremendous! includes some sound advice on how to turn your children, grandchildren and other young people in your world into avid and lifelong readers. There’s even a sample contract form you can use to get them moving in the right direction. The late Hodding Carter, journalist and publisher, once wrote: “There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these roots: the other wings.” Give them both by instilling in them a love for reading.
