Children everywhere dream big. They imagine the big picture, but may not know how to achieve their goals.

These much-needed lessons are delivered in an easy-to-understand interactive format that engages young minds, invites them to explore their dreams, and encourages them to focus on the necessary steps to help them make their dreams come true. Inside, children meet Mose Jones Jr., affectionately called Lil' Boy, a sharecropper's child, who grows up during the height of Alabama's civil rights movement. With few opportunities and even fewer resources available to him, he dreams of a life of service to his community, but needs a plan to help him reach his goal. When he's introduced to goal setting, he learns valuable lessons that he carries with him through the rest of his life. His inspirational story encourages children to think big, make plans, and never give up on their dreams, no matter the obstacles in front of them.

Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.
