Can kids learn to embrace their unique strengths, grow through challenges, and make the world a better place-all while having fun? Absolutely. And this book shows them how! Authors recognized by The Wall Street Journal, The Rockefeller Foundation and the U.S. Department of State-ACE Awards Brought to life with input from María Alejandra-an editor and collaborator 7 - 10 years of age during its creation-Be Your Best Self was crafted to resonate deeply with its target audience of early chapter book readers. The story captures the magic of everyday moments, blending timeless lessons of kindness, leadership, and resilience into adventures that kids will love. This isn't just another children's book-it's an empowering guide for young readers to navigate life's challenges, embrace their individuality, and find joy in helping others. Through the vibrant and relatable character of Haundra-whose name is inspired by the childhood Spanish nickname "Jandra" of María Alejandra herself-kids are challenged to see the potential in every situation, even the tough ones. The book introduces seven key lessons, from bouncing back from mistakes to appreciating life's small wonders, all delivered through relatable and heartwarming stories. Readers will cheer for Haundra as she organizes a neighborhood "Fun Fest," leads a school-wide Kindness Challenge, and helps transform a classroom mural after an "oops" moment turns into a creative triumph. Each chapter shows kids that being their best self doesn't mean being perfect-it means staying curious, kind, and ready to try again. The Flores Brothers know the value of inspiring young leaders. Rooted in the lessons of the historic commencement speech they delivered and documented at their alma mater, this book combines their vision for leadership with the kid's perspective of María Alejandra to create a resource children and families can turn to for both fun and personal growth.
