Child Champions

By Francois Keyser

These five short stories are intended to share five values that we can teach children or help children to adopt which will help them to develop the attitude of a Champion in life. 

 

While these five values are by no means the only values of importance for children, they are a start to help us guide our children to develop positive, winning attitudes for their own lives and for the benefit of every person whose life they will touch with their own.

 

This book is not about helping children to be better than others but rather to help children be better together with their friends, family, and classmates.

Kenneth’s father’s job was to look after the flowers.

Although Kenneth was afraid of the dark, his parents would not let
