From the authors who created the One Word movement, impacting schools, businesses, and sports teams around the world, comes a charming fable that can be read and shared by everyone.
If you could choose only one word to help you have your best year ever, what would it be? Love? Fun? Believe? Brave? It’s probably different for everyone. How you find your word is just as important as the word itself. And once you know your word, what do you do with it? In One Word for Kids, bestselling author Jon Gordon―along with coauthors Dan Britton and Jimmy Page―asks these questions to children and adults of all ages, teaching an important life lesson in the process.
This engaging, fully illustrated fable follows Stevie, a young boy falling asleep on the first day of school. His teacher gives the class an assignment: to find the one word that will help them have their best year ever. To discover their one word, they must look inside themselves, look up, and look out. At home, Stevie is upset because he can’t find his word. After his dad offers some helpful advice, Stevie excitedly begins the quest for his word. His search helps him discover a lot about himself, what he loves, and what is important to him.
An easy read with a powerful message, One Word for Kids appeals to readers of all ages and is an ideal entry point into discussing a valuable lesson in a fun and engaging way.

In the tasks "Extra in the row", "Who is superfluous here", "What is superfluous" in the group there is someone or something with a clear difference from other elements of the set. It is necessary to determine the most significant feature common to all objects except one.

To answer which word is superfluous in each group, you need to guess which feature unites the rest among these words.
Sample task: sofa, wardrobe, lamp, table.
