"The teenage years are rife with turbulent emotions, and this journal creates space for self-reflection, emotional processing, and identity exploration. This journal will provide refuge to any teenage girl grappling with who she is and who she wants to be."—Nancy Adler, Ph.D., clinical psychologist

"As a school social worker with over 20 years of experience, it is with great honor that I endorse Mr. Akindele's new book, The Boys' Guide to Growth Mindset. This book provides practical and innovative strategies to ensure that our young boys learn to support themselves and each other in developing a healthy sense of self. When reading this enlightening book, children will have fun with the questions and puzzles. In addition, the illustrations are good visuals to show children what they can do. There is also an informational section for caregivers and references for additional material. Children, parents, teachers, and social workers should read this educational book." —Alicia Wilson, LCSW, NYC regional director of uncommon schools

"It is critically important for boys to believe that they are not defined by their circumstances or mistakes. The Boys' Guide to Growth Mindset encourages them to find strength as they become the best version of themselves. The text structure and features are inviting to all readers, which allows individuals to learn and grow at their own pace."—Willette Mathlin, anti-racist educator
