About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling to find their own voice or confidence while living in the shadow of a louder, more outgoing sibling. This gentle chapter book follows five-year-old Teddy as he navigates the transition into the big kid world of school and social independence. While his older sister Nora is naturally bold, Teddy relies on his imagination and a trusty Superman cape to help him face his fears. It is an ideal bridge for children ages five to eight who are beginning to test their own boundaries. Parents will appreciate how Johanna Hurwitz validates the small but significant anxieties of early childhood, from getting a first haircut to making a new friend. This story serves as a comforting reminder that bravery doesn't always have to be loud, sometimes it just takes a little bit of pretend and a lot of heart.
