In a world of many influences, distractions, and temptations, the person you become is ultimately up to you. It is your choice how you will live and build relationships with the people around you, be they family, friends, or strangers.

This collection of thirteen motivational poems focuses on ways that young people can nurture the best version of themselves. Poet and octogenarian Sannie L. Chamblee spent his life as an educator, guiding children through trials and triumphs. The wisdom he gathered over the years is distilled into poems of encouragement.

Chamblee believes the path to achieving a good life is surprisingly simple. A bit of introspection has the power to reveal where you are and what you really want, thus illuminating the path to where you want to go. With verses on self-confidence, the value of family, and the power of others to shape you, Chamblee offers poetic guidance on creating positive relationships with others-and with yourself.

Written primarily for parents of children in elementary school, Your Choice can be used to help young people increase their self-awareness. Sharing the stirring poems with young readers can inspire them to keep going, leaping past boundaries and reaching their dreams.
