9. Stories with Stan (Part 9 of 34)
“Woah, it’s so cool,” Jaxon calls to his Mom as he admires the tiny set in the modest studio.
“I want ya’ll to meet my friend, Jaxon,” Stan says. “He wrote a book about his favorite football player, Julio Jones.”
At just six years old, Jaxon is one of the first graduates of Stan’s Share Your Story program, an eight-week course designed to teach kids how to write their own books. Jaxon’s book, If I Could Meet Julio Jones, was eventually chosen to be featured on Stories with Stan.
After some time, Jaxon finishes reading his book. He looks at Stan, and the two turn to the camera.
“You ready?” asks Stan.
Jaxon nods, and the pair say in unison, “Remember to always be kind and never judge a book - or a person - by their cover.”
