Review Quotes

"A wholesome family adventure story for kids, Building Courage shares the gentle message of family bonding, courage, and resilience. Based on real-life experiences, George Neeb tells a fun tale that showcases the benefits of following one's heart and the joy of doing outdoor activities. The story feels so relatable, probably because Neeb draws upon his own adventures with his sons while camping. The characters are funny, vibrant, and likable. The illustrations make them feel alive, and you find yourself enjoying Jacob's adventures as if you're having an adventure outdoors yourself. Kids are going to love this book. I also liked the ending where Jacob finally manages to get over his biggest hurdle. In conclusion, this is the kind of book parents should introduce to their children to instill a sense of adventure and love for the outdoors at an early age." -Readers' Favorite
