Book Description
At times, the main Jimmy character is as real as real can get, and at times, Jimmy becomes as fictional as one can get. This novel combines many parts of fiction, nonfiction, and a futuristic vision together with an autobiographical comedy, all in one. Also, it tells the story of his unconventional spiritual process in achieving his spiritual zenith. As they say, a road with no obstacles leads nowhere. So was the turbulent road toward his Damascus. They also say that the road most traveled is not the only road to destiny. Jimmy deviated. It took a lot of sculpting and chiseling from the potters to achieve perfection; however, Jimmy was not more than willing to be sculpted, so he kicked like a mule and bucked like a stallion that accidentally rubbed his butt on a cactus. And like a real mule, he was destined to carry heavy loads. This novel begins in 1962, in a tough part of the Bronx, New York, the same time span as when Kennedy was assassinated. He was a ten-year-old child that migrated from Italy to the United States of America with only one dollar in his pocket. He also had the vast English vocabulary of only one word: okay. One can only imagine the rest.

From the authors who created the One Word movement, impacting schools, businesses, and sports teams around the world, comes a charming fable that can be read and shared by everyone. If you could choose only one word to help you have your best year ever, what would it be? Love? Fun? Believe? Brave? It’s probably different for everyone.

In One Word for Kids, bestselling author Jon Gordon—along with coauthors Dan Britton and Jimmy Page—asks these questions to children and adults of all ages, teaching an important life lesson in the process. This engaging, fully illustrated fable follows Stevie, a young boy falling asleep on the first day of school. His teacher gives the class an assignment: to find the one word that will help them have their best year ever. To discover their one word, they must look inside themselves, look up, and look out. At home, Stevie is upset because he can’t find his word. After his dad offers some helpful advice, Stevie excitedly begins the quest for his word. His search helps him discover a lot about himself, what he loves, and what is important to him. An easy read with a powerful message, One Word for Kids appeals to readers of all ages and is an ideal entry point into discussing a valuable lesson in a fun and engaging way.
