We wrote this book with the intention of creating a book about teenagers who are truly making a difference in their homes, schools, and communities. We wanted to showcase teenagers who are taking action and are teenagers just like you.

This is a book that we hope will inspire teenagers just like you to be better. You can make a big difference by taking one small step towards being better everyday. This book contains stories from amazing teenagers who are taking action and when you read this book we want you to be inspired like we were.

We hope that you share this book with all of your friends, but we also hope that your parents read this book too. Our vision is that, together, we can all make this world a better place. We want you to take action, to volunteer, to help, to care, and to be a little bit more kind on a daily basis. On the reverse side, we've included a journal for you to capture your thoughts, to reflect on how you are making a difference, and to plan more future good deeds; now that's action!

From our families to yours,

Steve, Melissa, Paul and Hillary.
