Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
A Kids Book about Purpose
Karina LeBlanc · 2026
68/100
👎 Skip It
Karina LeBlanc is an ideal author for this topic — an Olympic medalist and UNICEF ambassador whose story genuinely embodies purpose — and the A Kids Book About series has a strong track record for accessible design and big ideas. The book is too new to have a reception record, which forces caution, and the secular framing of purpose may leave faith-oriented families wanting more. Worth revisiting once reviews accumulate.
