Frank & Tom’s Adventure: A Three-Generation Journey
This story didn’t start with a strategy session. It began the moment Connor came home from school, buzzing with an idea sparked by his teacher. Dropping his bag and sitting right on the floor of his mom’s office, the 11-year-old began to describe a world he was imagining: a frog and a toad heading off on an adventure.
What started as a creative spark between mother and son evolved into a unique three-generation project. Connor dreamt up the world; his mother, leadership strategist Michele Kline, wove in her 360° IMPACT philosophy (a framework designed to help people build confidence, resilience, and strong character); and his Great Aunt Grace Castex, a professional artist, brought the characters to life with her illustrations.
Together, they’ve shaped a fable where imagination meets character, proving that kindness and self-control are the ultimate superpowers.
