A New York Times bestseller!
From filmmaker, actor, and author Justin Baldoni comes a real-talk,
self-esteem-building guidebook that helps boys ages 11 and up embrace
their feelings and fears instead of repress them.
Highly designed and filled with activities, sidebars, and
inspirational quotes, this book is the perfect social-emotional learning
tool for parents and educators to jump-start conversations about
masculinity with the boys in their lives.
WARNING: THIS MIGHT BE THE MOST HONEST BOOK YOU'VE EVER READ
Have you ever noticed that there are unwritten rules that tell boys how
to act, think, and feel? Nobody knows where they came from, but one
day--BAM!--you suddenly feel these invisible forces, pushing you to
follow the rules of masculinity, even if they don't make you happy.
This book isn't about learning the rules of the boys' club, it's about
UNLEARNING them. It's a get-real guidebook that will show you how to be:
--and much, much more.
Be prepared: This book is raw and surprising. There is no subject
off-limits or lies detected. Sometimes things might get a little
uncomfortable, but that's an important part of getting to know--and
believe in--yourself.
Don't worry, you're not on this journey alone, so let's jump in together
to become the smartest, bravest, strongest HUMANS we can be!
