About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing a 'small' but daunting social hurdle, like greeting a new neighbor or owning up to a broken rule. While we often frame bravery as a grand, heroic feat, this guide helps children recognize that courage is an everyday tool used for honesty and social connection. It reframes nervous feelings as the starting point for a personal superpower. Through relatable scenarios like making mistakes and meeting new people, the book builds self-confidence and accountability. Written specifically for the early reader stage (ages 4-7), it provides a clear, encouraging vocabulary for children to navigate their anxieties. Parents will appreciate how it de-stigmatizes fear, teaching kids that being brave is not about the absence of worry, but about doing the right thing even when your heart beats fast.
