Mentoring Teenage Heroes
Mentoring Teenage Heroes: The Hero’s Journey of Adolescence is written for parents, teachers, coaches, and other ex-adolescents who now guide today’s teenagers along the heroic journey from childhood to adulthood — a rite of passage as old as the ancient myths that metaphorically describe it. Those myths echo through contemporary books and movies and the real-world experience of growing up. For most adults, daily life is a routine grind. For teenagers, it’s an epic struggle for identity. (Woodhall Press, February 2017) This book expands on the ideas of the award-winning TED-Ed lesson “What Makes a Hero?”
