Another in a fine series that focuses on an emotion/mindset that young people will need, but may not recognize. The format is similar to the other books, starting with definitions that are age appropriate, how it relates to goal setting, what a couple youngsters did that exemplify grit, how to recognize and use it at home, school and in the community. Other sections address how to overcome challenges, how to encourage grit in others, learning more about it and relevant vocabulary words. It's a good choice for school and public libraries.
