From Lisa Katzenberger, author of the beloved book It Will Be Ok, comes a positive take on new experiences, fear, and worry based on the real cognitive behavioral therapy technique Act As If.

One day, The Brave You won't be a different version of yourself—it will become your whole self.

Have you ever been so scared that your tummy tumbled and your heart hiccupped and your fingers fiddled? You're not alone! Elephant, Cheetah, and Gator feel the same way. Join these three friends as they find their brave self by first imagining themselves as brave and growing into being brave!

  • Preschool classrooms and teachers looking for books on feelings, social emotional learning, mindfulness and social skills
  • School counselors and children's therapists looking for cognitive behavioral therapy technique books for children
  • Parents looking for books on bravery, courage, and facing fears

        How can you be brave even when you feel frightened? This sensible, comprehensible guide for kids--and adults, too, if we're honest--explains how to tap into the Brave You, the "strong and bold part of you deep inside." Yep, even when you're feeling uncertain, nervous, queasy, frightened, or all of the above, within you lies a resilient inner person. How do you find the Brave You? Katzenberger encourages little ones to imagine what the Brave You sounds and acts like. "Next, play pretend and watch what happens." The author proposes that readers engage in these and other empowering activities for as long as they wish and for as long as these pep talks are required. One day, the Brave You "will become your whole self," she assures readers, and "you will be able to face your fear without even thinking about it." Softly rendered illustrations depict an adorable, childlike, all-animal cast. The visuals will be fun for children to pore over, and the characters are supportive role models for kids in need of a boost. The inspirational author's note, a list of tips aimed at children, and a message for caregivers from child psychologist Heather Davidson will also be useful. Every child needs a pick-me-up to feel an extra surge of courage: Here it is. (Picture book. 5-8)
