Character-in-Action® Series
(ages 12 and up)

Character education comes to life in middle school and high school when teenagers read the Character-in-Action® Series.

Most of all, you will LOVE the clear results you get with the Character-in-Action® Series.

• You will see independence-seeking, sometimes-rebellious teenagers discover clear standards of right and wrong — each well-defined — each modeled by realistic teen characters.
• You will see those teens, without lectures or sermonizing, decide that those moral standards are important to them personally.
• You will see teenagers accept those standards for themselves, and develop a desire to conform to the standards.
• You will see teenagers helping one another embrace those standards and work through
  the implications of them.
• You will have helped your teens set realistic, specific goals for building certain character traits, and you will see them get excited about those goals.
• Finally, you will begin to see actual changes in behavior as your teens and pre-teens
  put their newly-formed character into action.
  

...and that's why we call this series the Character-in-Action® Series - that's your goal and ours!

Passport to Courage takes you deep inside a very average, red-headed teenager facing an enormous challenge that could turn life upside down. Bowing to peer pressure after an initial resistance, he unwittingly became involved in a felony. Now what?

Andrew must choose between cowardice and the courage of conviction, but the choice is far from easy. It involves choosing between Penny and no girlfriend. It involves choosing between freedom and imprisonment.

Fear possesses the distraught teenager, wherever he is. It lives inside him, making his life miserable, tormenting him. He has to escape — if he can.

Date with Responsibility grabs readers and plunges them into the life-and-death struggle of Valeta — a 17-year old beauty queen, who once fought nothing worse than a broken fingernail, or a zit on the end of her tiny nose. All of that changes now, as violent crime forces the cutest, most popular girl in the senior class to make a life-changing decision — and then learn responsibility the hard way.

This teen book is fiction — exciting fiction — but it draws its events and unobtrusively written lessons from the shattering experience of a real teen, with whom the author is personally acquainted.
