Book Description
A compelling yet relatable narrative, RJ’s story is set against a backdrop of the real-life experiences faced by young learners, who must navigate the rigorous demands of both their academic and outside-the-classroom environments. Added to these are the pressures of managing relationships and more. Inspired by the true story of one boy, this book captures the author’s insights gleaned from encounters with her own grandson, an inventive adventurer. While brimming with the excitement and energy of any child his age, he is not without his struggles—a key one being his run-ins with Mathematics. Meanwhile, as a parental tool, these pages illustrate the impact of empowering children to turn their setbacks into triumphs. Drawing on the ‘skills as superpowers’ concept, Verghese conveys several foundational principles. She deconstructs them using easy-to-digest teachable moments—founded upon four widely-proven pillars, namely: POSITIVITY. FOCUS. PERSEVERANCE. ACTION
