Description
Ezekiel – who his buddies all call EZ – is about to discover a superpower he and his friends never knew they had!
When the school counselor, Mrs. Bernet, teaches a lesson about positive peer pressure, EZ learns that kids can influence each other in some amazing and surprising ways. Whether it’s stopping a friend from taking candy that doesn’t belong to him, doing the right (and safe) thing during a sleepover, or standing up for a classmate who is being picked on, EZ finds out that using his Triple P Power (positive peer pressure) can make school – and the world – kinder, safer, and a place where everyone belongs!
But EZ isn’t the only one who has the power to be a positive influence. His friends, classmates, and even readers will see how simple actions, brave choices, and encouraging words can inspire and motivate others to do what’s right.
Filled with relatable situations and meaningful lessons, this uplifting story shows children that they don’t need to be grown-ups to make a difference. They have the power to take action and influence others to do courageous and big-hearted things.
A special page for parents, caregivers, and educators offers additional insights for showing kids how to use peer pressure in kind, supportive, and healthy ways.
This is the second title in author Bryan Smith’s highly acclaimed Kids Can Do It Too! series. Written for ages 5-11, the series is designed to inspire young readers to use peer-to-peer collaboration and develop independent problem-solving skills.
