About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling intimidated by group dynamics or needs a boost in confidence to tackle a difficult task with their peers. It is an ideal choice for children who are learning how to balance their own individual bravery with the necessity of working as a team to solve a problem. The story follows the Brave Seven, a group of resilient children on a quest to rescue the Rainbow from the Shadow and Dark Cloud. Along the way, they encounter the Meemees, grumpy characters who represent the external pushback children often face when they are just being kids. This Australian adventure blends fantasy with relatable social lessons, making it a perfect tool for discussing how to handle 'grumpy' obstacles and the importance of persistence. It is best suited for children ages 5 to 9 who enjoy quest narratives and triumphing over literal and metaphorical shadows.
