Description
“Anytime I've been sad or happy or really mad about something, Pokémon have always been there by my side, through it all.” Ash Ketchum
Like our heroes Ash and Pikachu, we are all on a road to personal mastery. But life isn’t always sunshine and Jigglypuffs.
Written by some of the greatest Pokémon trainers in history, this inspirational book of wit and wisdom offers advice for every turn of life’s winding path, from the road to Viridian City to the heady heights of Indigo Plateau.
Bursting full of positivity, humour and fun, this charming book of inspirational quotes and illustrations shows that although Jigglypuff, Meowth and Pikachu may be Pokémon, their values could not be more human. We all live in a Pokémon world.
Pokémon: Book of Joy will leave you ready to face every challenge along the way. And to truly catch 'em all!
