About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the concept of listening or seems to view kindness as a weakness. It is an ideal choice for high energy children who find it difficult to pause before acting or who are beginning a new sport or group activity and need a framework for self discipline. Through the lens of a young samurai in training, the story demonstrates that true strength comes from self control rather than physical force. While the setting is full of action and adventure, the heart of the book is about honoring others and practicing patience. It provides a gentle yet firm model for how to navigate social interactions with dignity. Parents will appreciate how it reframes obedience as a form of mastery, making the concept of respect more appealing to children aged 4 to 8 who are eager to show their independence and capability.
