About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing their first big moment on stage, whether it is a dance recital, a school play, or even just standing up to share a story in class. It is the perfect choice for children who have a natural spark of creativity but find themselves held back by the 'butterflies' of performance anxiety. The story follows Priscilla, a pig with big dreams and a flair for the dramatic, as she navigates the gap between her private rehearsals and the daunting reality of a public spotlight. It validates the physical sensations of nervousness while celebrating the joy that comes from sharing one's unique light with others. Parents will appreciate how it frames bravery not as the absence of fear, but as the choice to perform in spite of it. This rhyming tale is ideal for ages 3 to 6, providing a gentle roadmap from pre-show jitters to post-show pride.
