Synopsis :

Boys can be anything they want to be in this New York Times bestselling book! A timeless book giving middle-grade boys a welcome message that masculinity can mean many things.

You won't find any stories of slaying dragons or saving princesses here. In Stories for Boys Who Dare to Be Different, author Ben Brooks--with the help of Quinton Wintor's striking full-color illustrations--offers a welcome alternative narrative: one that celebrates introverts and innovators, sensitivity and resilience, individuality and expression.

It's an accessible compilation of 75 famous and not-so-famous men from the past to the present day, every single one of them a rule-breaker and stereotype-smasher in his own way. Entries include Frank Ocean, Salvador Dali, Beethoven, Barack Obama, Ai Weiwei, Jesse Owens, and many more. Celebrate these incredible heroes from all walks of life and from all over the world and give young boys positive role models to impact their lives and growth.
