Synopsis

The Adventures of Blue Ocean Bob is a children's book series based upon timeless principles of achievement. The stories, and the lessons they reveal, are inspired by the work of outstanding individuals who have spent their lives researching and teaching these principles, including Wallace D. Wattles, Napoleon Hill, Earl Nightingale and, for the past fifty years, Bob Proctor. While many of the principles in The Adventures of Blue Ocean Bob may appear basic or widely accepted, they are often not taught to children as part of a regular school curriculum.

We hope that the Blue Ocean Bob books and products are fun, colorful and inspiring while they also provide children with a framework for success in any endeavor they choose to pursue. In addition, we hope the Blue Ocean Bob characters and stories will develop an appreciation and respect for our oceans and sea life in children from an early age.

In Volume One, a picture book entitled Blue Ocean Bob Discovers His Purpose, young Bob yearns for a greater sense of fulfillment. Accompanied by his friend Xena, an overly cautious hummingbird, he sets out to ask the happy sea creatures to share their wisdom with him. His quest leads him first to Al, a playful and spirited dolphin, and then to the local sage, an old turtle named 'Doc,' who finally helps Bob realize his passion and discover his purpose - to protect the sea, and all life within it.
