Code 7 Cracking the Code for an Epic Life

While I was sent this a copy of Code 7 Cracking the Code for an Epic Life to review I passed it over to my boys. This book is for middle readers 2 – 6, ages 7-12. Here is the scoop!

About Code 7:

From the minute they wake up in the morning, most kids are far too busy dealing with schoolwork, their activities, and their responsibilities at home. In other words, they are busy doing what they are told. But what about what our kids aspire to do? Can we do more to expose our children to a full spectrum of possibilities beyond standardized tests, dance recitals, and taking care of Fido? Entrepreneur Bryan R. Johnson believes we can!
Johnson wrote Code 7 because he believes we can help our upcoming generation take charge of their lives to better the world. Code 7 provides a roadmap for a diverse audience of children and their advocates to start early and make meaning in their lives today. Not only are the stories in Code 7 engaging for children to read, but the book is also perfect for parents and educators to share with kids to address themes of:
Young people making a difference / changing the world
Determining the values you want to live by
Being empowered to follow your passions
Service learning and social entrepreneurship
Identity, self-confidence, and self-esteem
Code 7

Our Thoughts:

My son actually read this book in a day. He is 11 and entering the 6th grade. He quite simply said he liked it. When I questioned him about telling me more, he gave the recap of how it’s a book about 7 kids telling 7 stories that come together at the end. He told me that he found the book to be powerful as it taught lessons on the importance of doing the right thing, the meaning of friendship, and truly living an epic life. As a parent I love having resources such as this available for kids. I don’t think that in today’s world these lessons can be over stressed. I don’t want to give the code away, but living by this code absolutely wold lead to an epic life. I also like that it doesn’t here in the books pages.

About the Author:
No matter where Bryan R. Johnson is—in the car, at the dinner table, or around the campfire—he loves inventing stories for his children on demand. A successful entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and founder of Kernel, OS Fund and Braintree, Johnson is also a real-life adventurer. If he’s not flying airplanes, he’s exploring the ruins of ancient Rome or climbing the peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro. He also loves fist bumps over handshakes, pizza without the crust, and colorful shoes.
*Disclosure: I received a copy of this book for review. All thoughts belong to my son and myself!*
