Reach for this book when your child is facing a social challenge or a big, scary problem that feels overwhelming. Sarah is a small girl who finds herself in a tight spot when she is caught by a hungry lion, but instead of panicking, she uses her wit and a calm voice to negotiate her way out of becoming lunch. It is a perfect story for empowering children to find their own voice and realize that being clever is just as powerful as being big or loud. While the setup involves a predator and prey dynamic, the tone remains light and humorous, making it appropriate for children as young as three. Parents will appreciate how it models emotional regulation and problem solving through dialogue. It encourages kids to stand tall in the face of 'lions' in their own lives, whether that is a playground bully or a new, intimidating experience.
