Description
In this inspiring children's adaptation of the New York Times bestseller The Hero Code: Lessons Learned from Lives Well Lived, Admiral William H. McRaven and daughter Kelly Marie McRaven show young readers what it means to be truly heroic.
When the president of the United States tasks Skipper the SEAL with assembling a team of heroes, Skipper isn't sure where to start. But as he meets other animals who give of their time and talents every day—from the Courageous Cat who stands up for others, to the Dutiful Duck who never leaves a student behind, to the Funny Fox who creates joy wherever he goes—Skipper realizes that heroes don't have to be big and strong. There are heroes all around us!
Skipper says: Be a hero in all that you do!
For more adventures with Skipper, don't miss Make Your Bed with Skipper the Seal.Book Details
