Introducing Scarlett's Big Shot: A Heartwarming Tale of Resilience and Leadership for Young Readers

The Left of Bang Children's Series is designed to help parents, caregivers, and teachers nurture essential leadership traits in young readers.

AUSTIN, TX, UNITED STATES, September 17, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Ramón “CZ” Colón-López, the fourth Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (SEAC) and retired Air Force Pararescueman, and Mike Sarraille, a retired Navy SEAL and best-selling author, have teamed up to create an inspiring and educational children’s leadership series, The Left of Bang Series. The first volume, Scarlett’s Big Shot: Turning Setback Into Success, releases on September 17th.

Scarlett's Big Shot: Turning Setback Into Success is an uplifting story designed to build future leaders. Set in the town of Maplewood, the story follows Scarlett, a young girl with dreams of becoming a basketball star. After facing the disappointment of not making the team, Scarlett, with the help of her father, learns to turn setbacks into opportunities through perseverance, resilience, and optimism.

More than just a story, Scarlett's Big Shot includes guided discussions and a goal-setting worksheet for parents and teachers, helping children explore essential life skills and leadership principles. This engaging tale equips young readers with the tools to face real-world challenges, teaching them how to turn obstacles into stepping stones for success.

When asked why Ramón Colón-López wrote this book, he said, “Our youth deserve a chance for success and prosperity. Previous generations have a duty to ensure the lessons learned in their lifetime are passed on to provide opportunities for others. The Left of Bang series is designed on that premise of sharing lessons to make society better. We are publishing these books under our generational commitment to preserve our values and our way of life.”

The Left of Bang Children's Series is designed to help parents, caregivers, and teachers nurture essential leadership traits in young readers. Focusing on the formative period before key life events—referred to as “left of bang”—the series introduces and reinforces principles like resilience, perseverance, and character development. Through engaging stories and practical tools, the series empowers children to grow into confident, capable leaders, preparing them to navigate life's challenges and opportunities with strength and purpose.

"I am truly humbled to collaborate on this initiative with Ramón Colón-López, a military legend and one of the most exceptional leaders in our nation. We both share a deep belief in the limitless potential of the next generation—if we guide and mentor them to realize it. The Left of Bang series is our small way of contributing to that mission,” says Mike Sarraille.
