Courage. Compassion. Conviction.
Three timeless heroes. One unforgettable collection.

In this beautifully illustrated boxed set, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. brings to life three extraordinary true stories of moral courage and selfless leadership—written to inspire young readers and families alike.

  • Robert Smalls — The enslaved man who risked everything for freedom, stealing a Confederate ship to deliver his family—and his nation—to liberty.
  • Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain — The humble professor who became a Civil War hero at Gettysburg, defending the ideals of courage, faith, and unity.
  • Saint Francis of Assisi — The gentle saint who gave up wealth to serve others and protect the natural world.

Each story celebrates the enduring power of integrity, empathy, and bravery—the qualities that define true heroism across generations.

Perfect for readers aged 6–10, this collection invites children to explore history through the lives of those who acted with conscience and heart.
