Brave As Can Be: A Book of Courage
Product ID: 167723581
From the author and illustrator of the bestselling in my heart! The life of a toddler can be full of frightening things: the dark, the neighbor's dog, and thunderstorms, just to name a few. As children get older, they begin to feel braver around these everyday events, but how do they build this newfound confidence? In this lyrical, insightful picture book, an older sister explains to her younger sister all the things she used to be afraid of, along with some tricks to help, whether it's a special blanket for bedtime or singing during a storm. Now, big sister assures little sister, the fears that once felt as big as a mountain feel as minuscule as a speck of dust. This playful portrait of fear and bravery empowers young readers to confront once-scary situations and, with charming illustrations and die-cuts throughout, is also beautifully packaged. The growing hearts series celebrates the milestones of a toddler's emotional development, from conquering fears and expressing feelings to welcoming a new sibling.

Perfect Resource for Teaching Children About Inner Strength
Brave As Can Be" has become an invaluable tool for helping my child understand and develop courage in both everyday situations and bigger challenges. This book from the Growing Hearts series perfectly captures what bravery really means - not the absence of fear, but acting with kindness and strength even when things feel scary or uncertain. What makes this book exceptional is how it reframes courage in age-appropriate ways that children can actually apply to their lives. Rather than focusing on dramatic heroics, it celebrates the everyday bravery of trying new things, standing up for others, speaking up when something's wrong, and persevering through difficulties. My 5-year-old now references "being brave like in the book" when facing challenges at school or social situations. The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous with warm, diverse characters and scenarios that reflect real childhood experiences. The artwork perfectly complements the gentle but empowering message, showing children in various acts of courage - from trying new foods to helping friends to speaking in front of class. The visual storytelling helps children see themselves in these brave moments. The text is beautifully written with lyrical language that flows perfectly during read-alouds. The message is profound without being preachy, and the examples of courage are relatable and achievable for young children. It opens up wonderful conversations about what courage looks like in daily life. The book has become our go-to resource before challenging situations like first days of school, doctor visits, or social events where my child feels nervous. Highly recommend for parents wanting to build children's confidence and emotional resilience - this delivers powerful life lessons wrapped in beautiful, accessible storytelling that genuinely impacts how children view their own capabilities.
