For character education- this book's an MVP

Filled with simple, affirmative statements that kids can embrace, this book is a great one for teachers to read to students at the start of the school year. LeBron weaves basketball metaphors into his text “I promise… to throw the alley-oop and uplift others…to run full court and show up each time” to give the story a fun and unique flavor. Children from diverse backgrounds will see themselves in the vibrant, inclusive illustrations. This book’s getting an MVP spot on my character education shelf! -Michelle Schaub, Author of Kindness is a Kite String

Inspiring, Relevant Message for Everyone

We keep coming back to “I Promise” for another read. The inspiring message behind LeBron’s “The I Promise School” leaves you feeling hopeful for a better future and encouraged that children can be resilient, respectful and imaginative. Nina Mata’s illustrations are gorgeous (we love her from Ty’s Travels and She Got This) and overall just can’t recommend this book enough.
