There are many kinds of courage. Big acts of courage and the everyday kinds that normal, ordinary people exhibit all the time, like “being the first to make up after an argument,” or “going to bed without a nightlight.” Bernard Waber explores the many varied kinds of courage and celebrates the moments, big and small, that bring out the hero in each of us. Now a lap board book.

What reviewers said
In this poignant yet entertaining volume, versatile author and artist Waber takes a look at the various ways in which kids, the occasional grown-up and one endearing canine display bravery.
“…this [book] develops a timely topic in simple, sensitive ways.”
“…this title may prove a valuable discussion starter, heavier on charm than on didacticism.”
“Veteran author-illustrator Waber offers a simple book with his familiar combination of crayon-colored sweetness and agitated line.” Booklist, ALA — Booklist
