The Boy Who Changed the World


Have you had difficulties teaching your children that what they do now can change the world? Or that it really does and can make a difference? “The Boy Who Changed the World” by Andy Andrews is a book that can help you show your kids that they can make a difference by what they do now.
This book is a children’s version of “The Butterfly Effect” that shows that when you do something, you may feel that it is minor in significance, however it can change the world on the back end. Going through the stories of a few men, Andy Andrews shows how people can do one thing in their lives that lead to major accomplishments.
I would not recommend this book for younger children, but more for those that are around eight years old and older. There are some bigger words that may be confusing to those younger. The storyline works backwards and can be a little confusing at times.
Overall the illustrations are good, and the story has a great meaning to it, other than the stated issues above the book is a nice addition to any collection.
