Product Description

Encourage kids to find their inner strength with this companion to the New York Times bestsellers I Am Human and I Am Love!

I move ahead one breath at a time.
I act with bravery.
I am courage.

When we picture someone brave, we might think they're fearless; but real courage comes from feeling scared and facing what challenges us anyway. When our minds tell us "I can't," we can look inside ourselves and find the strength to say, "Yes, I CAN!"

From the New York Times bestselling team behind the I Am series comes a triumphant celebration of everyday courage: believing in ourselves, speaking out, trying new things, asking for help, and getting back up no matter how many times we may fall. Grounded in mindfulness and awareness, I Am Courage is an empowering reminder that we can conquer anything.
Inside, you'll also find exercises to inspire confidence.

From School Library Journal

K-Gr 2-The unnamed child protagonist, of uncoded gender, encounters multiple challenges that give them opportunities to be courageous. From going uphill into a scary forest to crossing a bridge, the protagonist quiets their mind to face and overcome each and every obstacle. They learn that being afraid doesn't mean that they can't persevere, and there's nothing wrong with asking for help. Likewise, they are able to help when others need them, whether that means being a listening ear or sharing their story. No matter what comes their way, they and their friends will be triumphant. This book is a well-timed reminder for the picture book audience of what it means to be courageous: that it starts with being afraid, then pushing through that fear to accomplish a goal. Verde presents the lesson in a collection of affirmations; the blending of traditional and digital art media comes together as a beautifully crafted backdrop to the story. The font also adds to the whimsy of the artwork and enhances this important story. This cogent presentation of an abstract concept is an essential addition to most collections.-Myiesha Speight, formerly at Towson Univ., Baltimore

Review

"A vivid array of vibrant backgrounds evoke the range of moods experienced by the children, who themselves are drawn as distinct individuals with expressive faces. . .For young readers who need help believing in themselves and for those with friends who do the same." Kirkus Reviews
