Marc's Mission: Way of the Warrior Kid

Description

In Way of the Warrior Kid, Marc went from wimp to warrior in one summer. He learned to be strong inside and out, mastered his multiplication tables, conquered his fear of swimming, and even made nice with the meanest kid on the playground (who turned out to be not so mean after all). Now, in this second book in the Warrior Kid series, Marc uses what he learned last summer to help another kid who needs a boost. Can he take the skills he learned from his Navy SEAL uncle Jake to instill the warrior spirit in someone who needs his help? New York Times-bestselling author Jocko Willink delivers a second powerful and empowering book about finding your inner strength and being the best you can be, even in the face of adversity.
