Sharing education, sharing a book…that’s what changes the world.
Brad Meltzer
On the day my daughter was born, I started writing a book for her. The plan was that, over the course of her life, I'd fill it with advice on how to be a strong woman. But along the way, I got caught up in the stories of Amelia Earhart, Sally Ride, and so many others. So how do you pick the best heroes for your kids?

In this life, y'ever notice that you face the same challenges again and again? We all do. They're challenges to your soul. We repeat them until we face them and master them. Yes we all have free will, but there're divine patterns out there, and the battle is to see them.

The past may not hurt you, but it won't challenge you, either.
Brad Meltzer
Every life has forks in the road. And sometimes, the tines of that fork stab deep.
Brad Meltzer
Greatness isn't something you should always be chasing. There's greatness within all of us, and I think that's what we forget.
Brad Meltzer
My worst moments as a parent have been much like my greatest moments as a parent: the product of complete and perfect accident.
Brad Meltzer
For me, Superman's greatest contribution has never been the superhero part: it's the Clark Kent part - the idea that any of us, in all our ordinariness, can change the world.
Brad Meltzer
As I tell my daughter, when you want something in life - no matter how impossible it seems - you need to fight for it.
Brad Meltzer
I understand pain. I've lived with pain my entire life. But pain is nothing compared to betrayal. And betrayal is nothing compared to knowing that the javelin in your back was rammed there by the one person in your life you actually trusted.
Brad Meltzer
There's the life you live and the life you leave behind. but what you share with someone else - especially someone you love - that's not just how you bury your past. It's how you write you future.
