Book 1

Way of the Warrior Kid

by Jocko Willink

Published 2 May 2017
Fifth grade was the worst year of Marc’s life. He stunk at gym class, math was too hard for him, the school lunch was horrible, and his class field trip was ruined because he couldn’t swim. And the most awful thing about fifth grade? Kenny Williamson, the class bully, who calls himself the 'King of the Jungle.'

When Marc's mother tells him that his Uncle Jake is coming to stay for the whole summer, Marc can't wait. Uncle Jake is a for real, super-cool Navy SEAL. And Uncle Jake has a plan.

He's going to turn Marc into a warrior.

Becoming a warrior isn’t easy. It involves a lot of pull ups, sit ups, pushups, squats, swimming, eating right, and studying harder than ever before! Can Marc transform himself into a warrior before school starts in the fall – and finally stand up to the King of the Jungle himself?

Marc's Mission

by Jocko Willink

Published 1 May 2018
In WAY OF THE WARRIOR KID, Marc went from wimp to warrior in some summer. He learned to be strong inside and out, mastered his multiplication tables, conquered his fear of swimming, and even made nice with the meanest kid on the playground (who turned out to be not so mean after all).

Now, in this second book in the Warrior Kid series, Marc uses what he learned last summer to help another kid who needs a boost. Can he take the skills he learned from his Navy SEAL uncle Jake to instill the warrior spirit in someone who needs his help?

New York Times-bestselling author Jocko Willink delivers a second powerful and empowering book about finding your inner strength and being the best you can be, even in the face of adversity.

Way of the Warrior Kid III

Published 17 February 2025
A new summer brings new challenges...

Marc shouldn’t have a single complaint. He’s done really well in his classes, his friends Kenny and Nathan have joined him at jiu-jitsu, and most important, he’s been staying on the Warrior Kid path.

There’s just one problem and that problem is named Danny Rhinehart. It seems like every thing Marc does, Danny does better. Danny runs faster, can do more pull-ups, has jiu-jitsu moves that Marc can’t solve, and is even awesome in school. On top of all that, Danny is too nice - he smiles at everything and it drives Marc up a wall. Marc doesn’t know what to do.

Luckily, there is some good news: Marc’s Navy SEAL Uncle Jake is back to visit for the summer. Maybe Uncle Jake can help Marc learn to handle a kid like Danny - a kid who is good at everything! But it won’t be easy. Marc will have to work hard, train hard, and learn to deal with a brand new kind of problem: his own ego.

It’s going to be a tough summer, but where there’s a will, there’s a way…

Book 5

Marc,

How's it going over there? You should be settling into the school year by now. I wanted to write you to let you know I got your letter. I'm very proud of you for finally standing up to Kenny Williamson and showing him that he can no longer bully you - showing him what a Warrior Kid is all about...

It's the holidays and Marc and his friends are ready to celebrate! But more importantly, they’ve decided to give back to those in need. While searching through his house for things he can donate to the local Holiday donation drive, Marc comes across his treasured collection of letters from his Navy SEAL Uncle Jake.

Each letter contains a story from Uncle Jake’s childhood that teaches a valuable lesson, shows how to overcome life’s challenges, face one’s fears - or all of the above!

Marc realises these letters can do more than just help him - they could help kids everywhere! Not only does he donate copies of them to the donation drive, he’s sharing them with YOU to help you become smarter, stronger, healthier and better! Not only do you get to learn what Uncle Jake's childhood was like, you get to learn new ways to stay on The Path and be the best Warrior Kid you can be!
