A self-help book for kids from the co-author of The Courage to Be Disliked.
If you want the kids in your life to build confidence, reduce worries and anxiety and get to know themselves, give them this book.
Blending fiction and self-help, The Courage to Be Yourself will empower and inspire young readers in the way other books in the Courage series have done for millions of adults.
Here the philosopher-student conversation of The Courage to Be Disliked is relocated to an underwater world, transforming into a child-friendly encounter between an old, wise hermit crab and young octopus Ockley. Their conversation covers ideas such as the difference between thoughts and feelings, letting go of things you can’t control, getting to know yourself better and learning self-acceptance, and will strike a chord with children and adults alike.

– The child who wants to build confidence and reduce worries
– Parents and educators looking for an engaging story that will help young people process emotions and manage stress and anxiety, and build resilience
