The Father-Son Ride Of A Lifetime

A good adventure will always bring a family closer, and perhaps no one knows this better than Charles Scott, father of two and author of Rising Son: A Father and Son’s Bike Adventure Across Japan. Scott took three months off from his corporate job at Intel to bike through Asia with his 8-year-old son, Sho. In Rising Son, Scott chronicles the adventure, sharing stories of weathering storms, sleeping in tents, eating fresh sea urchins, as well as Sho’s search for the Best Game Room Ever. Not only is it a compelling read about a father and son becoming a team, the book is also filled with astute parenting insights. We get to see a glimpse of Scott’s beautiful family life as he talks about handling temper tantrums, building his children’s confidence, and giving the precious gift of time. amazon.com
