About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling intimidated by things that seem bigger or tougher than they are, particularly if they are prone to overthinking potential threats. It is a gentle tool for addressing the 'imaginary' weight of real fears through the eyes of a relatable animal protagonist. The story follows Flip, a young colt who is terrified of the cows on the farm, specifically their sharp, pointy horns. Through a series of humorous events and a lucky accident, Flip discovers that the cows are actually just as easily startled as he is. It is a wonderful pick for children ages 3 to 7 who are navigating early anxieties, showing them that curiosity can lead to a shift in perspective that turns a scary situation into a playful one.
