I have all of John Wooden's Inch and Miles series and my kids and I love them. The real joy is not that the stories are earth shattering, though they are well written, it's that they are a kids book with success principles... you read them knowing the simple story models for your children timeless principles and offers you an assurance the children are learning a valuable lesson (which is more than I can say about most kids books).

Don't hesitate to buy this, but at the same time don't place unwarranted expectations, it's still a kids book!
