Can children develop that inner 'fire' to light up their soul to become something special? Can they develop the initiative that will sustain and guide them in life? Can they become the leaders we know they can be? Yes they can with this simple concept!

Ordinarily, we teach children how to do things and the difference between right and wrong; we answer their questions (as much as possible) about the 'what' and 'why' things are but this is not enough. Children need to also understand much deeper life principles - like the importance of building character, how to make decisions, the consequences of relying on others to make their dreams come true and the value of their word.

The "W" Characters introduces children to the three character types that they can identify with, accept, or build upon.

Types of People

Will they wish forever for the easy road, will they try "this and that" or will they DO something that makes a difference?

On a camping trip among the majestic Sequoia trees in California a team of children learn simple truths about character to help them succeed in life. With the gentle guidance of their Team Leader, on a beautiful night next to a warm fire, the children learn how to identify with winners.

Wisher, Wishy-Washy and WASHER

Learn how Bethany Hamilton (I don't need easy, I just need possible*), Firemen, Teachers and others can become heroes, doers and models that make a difference!

The "W" Characters gets these messages across in a fun, easy-to-read presentation that they'll want to read again and again.


What Readers Say About The "W" Characters

"The 'W' Characters is a fun way to look at people and the way they act toward their goals. It is beautifully written, and the intention is wonderful. It's inspiring, and the idea has changed the way I think about things. Once you read it, I'm sure you'll feel the same way."
Laura St. Onge, age 12

"[My family] really enjoyed it, and I think it was inspirational for all of us."
Vicky St. Onge, mother of two

"I really like this book because I was a Wisher in the past. Now, I am going to be a Washer. I am going to work hard and do my best."
Molly MacTaggart, age 7

"This book made me feel that I was camping. I learned that I was being a Wisher, and when I finished the book, I decided I was going to be a Washer. This book also has a helpful lesson for each word. I loved it!"
Hannah MacTaggart, age 10

"This book is about accomplishing more goals. It helped me understand more about character. These are some valuable lessons, and I would not want to be a Wisher because Wishers don't accomplish anything. They only wish. I learned that I should never start a sport and then stop, and then start and then stop. I should just keep going. If it's hard, it's hard, and that's okay. I'm a Washer because I never give up when I am building Legos. I stay focused and finish so I can have a masterpiece."
Zachary Goldstein, age 8

"I liked the setting and how lessons are learned in each chapter. The kids are talking about what they want to be. I liked the description words a lot. The interesting part is that the book is unusually relaxing to think about."
Elisa Goldstein , mother of Zac

"The 'W' Characters is a very well-written and fascinating book. I really like how it groups people in three different general types: Wishers, Washers and Wishy-Washys. I also like how it teaches you how to identify people's character."
Anika Seth, age 7

"The 'W' Characters offers incredible insight in such a fun and simplistic way. Both of my girls got the message immediately while thoroughly enjoying the story. It truly is a book that keeps on giving as it touches upon any age group or developmental stage. We will certainly keep this book on our family bookshelf as it is a must have!"
Sarah MacTaggart, mother or Hannah and Molly

There are 3 types of people:



Some dream but don't know how to take action,
Some flounder, achieving less than they could,
And others DO, and succeed!
