Based on the bestselling series, Ordinary People Change the World, I am...: A Journal for Extraordinary Kids is a friendly prompted journal encouraging children to discover their own extraordinary qualities.

Encourage kids to explore their own heroic traits with this lightly-prompted and heavily-illustrated journal from the dynamic duo behind Ordinary People Change the World, Brad Meltzer and Chris Eliopoulos. The iconic imagery throughout will prompt kids to think about the heroes they've read about, and how being ordinary can often lead to extraordinary things.
