From the family that brought us the books that sold millions, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, we present a new, colorful, and fun audiobook for children.

For the Seven Oaks friends, there is always something to do. Whether they're singing along with Pokey Porcupine's harmonica or playing soccer with Jumper Rabbit, everyone is having fun and learning all sorts of things. These seven stories show how practicing the 7 Habits makes this possible for the whole Seven Oaks Community.

From learning how to take charge of their own lives to discovering how balance is best, the Seven Oaks friends have tons of adventures and find out how each and every kid can be a happy kid!

"I started to read this through right after bringing it home from the library. I didn't think I would like it because it was too didactic. My kids did though. They like the characters and stories. AND, I've already been able to use some of the things we learned in practical situations. The other day my daughter came up to me at the library and said she'd like to check out a book on tape since she's bored at home sometimes. I got to compliment her on taking charge for herself (the first principle we read about). I've also tried to coach kids who are having trouble coming to a resolution about finding a win-win situation. I haven't read it all the way through with all of the kids, but this is the book we keep in our van for times when we have to sit there and wait etc. so I'm sure we will soon finish."

    " This was a good book with life lessons for little kids. Each story illustrates one of the 7 habits, and after each story is discussion questions and extension activities related to the habit. I can see why some districts are implementing this as a school culture thing. Easy to read and legit. "
