The Average Boy series features humorous writing and whimsical illustrations to help readers embrace the idea that life isn’t always about being the smartest, most athletic, or best-looking kid in the neighborhood. Faith, family, and friends are far more valuable than being perceived as cool.
What happens when “Average Boy” Bob Smiley gets to the end of an above-average school year? Why, it’s time for an above-average summer, of course! If things go according to plan–and Average Boy always has lots of plans–then this summer will be his best one ever.
You see, Average Boy isn’t going to sleep in until noon this summer–at least not every day. No, he has big goals for the next few months. This summer is when Average Boy will finally build that tree house he’s been planning with his best friend, Billy. This summer is when he will brush his teeth every morning (as soon as he finds his toothbrush). And this summer he’s setting a goal to invite everyone in town to church.
There will be challenges along the way–challenges like Donny the school bully, or Sarah and Everley, who always seem to have water balloons in hand. But his biggest challenge this summer is the Huge Hairy Hisser, who lurks in the woods behind Average Boy’s house and seems determined to ruin his tree house-building plans.
It will definitely be a summer to remember!

Kids have an innate curiosity to explore and discover new things about themselves-they learn their strengths and talents, their preferences and quirks, all while celebrating little victories along the way.

A note to parents section at the end of the book offers practical tips and additional Bible verses for instilling these truths in children as they navigate the world and build the foundation of their lives.

Like adults, children often struggle with insecurities and doubts. Maybe they wish they looked like someone else, or were better at soccer or painting, or simply wonder if they measure up to their peers. This book reminds children of an incredible truth–God made them the way they are for a reason, and they are amazing! They are beautiful and talented in their own unique ways, and they are exactly who God wants them to be. Renowned Bible teacher Joyce Meyer invites children to joyfully embrace their unique identities and to celebrate the unique identities of others.
