Life is filled with fascinating questions that can (usually) only be answered through the wisdom of experience. Is it better to get what you want now, or later? Do you really have to do that thing that's so hard to do? And why is it important to keep every promise you make?

Questions like these are addressed in Thoughts That Count, a collection of thirty stories illustrating powerful life lessons in a simple and memorable way. Geared toward families with children and readers of all ages, each unique morality tale points to one important aspect of character development that can be summed up in a short catchphrase-and referred back to whenever a teachable moment occurs.

So put on your "everyday superhero" cape and join author Byron Wesley Lehman on an inspiring journey where readers will learn about some of life's biggest challenges, from doing the right thing (especially when it's hard), to pulling your own share of the load, to giving thanks each and every day.

While inspiring valuable discussions about morality and values, Lehman's tales draw upon a variety of historical figures, personal anecdotes, and imaginative reflections for an enlightening and entertaining read from beginning to end.
