It awakens that spirit within the lives of all who guide and inspire young people, and appreciate the value and importance of face-to-face relationships. Robin Cox shares true stories of his and other mentors’ interactions with young people from a variety of cultures and ethnicities to give credibility to the strategies and tips mentioned in the book. The challenges facing our young people in a post-pandemic world are discussed, and practical solutions offered. Anyone working with young people will feel equipped, enabled, and further empowered to take on a formal or informal mentoring role, and will have an inspirational resource to consult in the years ahead.
