Ara is the odd turtle out in his family, preferring his rock collection to new or wild adventures-until he meets Baeoh, a confident tiger who practices martial arts. Unsure if he has what it takes to join Baeoh's taekwondo team, Ara must learn how to come out of his shell, persist through failure, and accept the help of his new friends to complete the Tiger Fitness Challenge. The Team Taekwondo series combines the appeal of graphic novels and martial arts to deliver action-filled, character-building stories. Each book also includes one free lesson at any participating licensed ATA Martial Arts location.

"Lee and Nodelman blend the essential lessons of taekwondo with an idealized look at how family and friends can support self-confidence rather than diminish it. Messages about self-esteem, positive thinking, and persistence are never far from the surface, but the story avoids turning preachy...Beavers's vivid, angular cartoons balance action-oriented scenes with more introspective moments. It's a story that makes the success of a small first step feel like an epic achievement, which is exactly what someone lacking confidence needs to hear." --Publishers Weekly
