What Makes Me Scared?

What makes you feel scared?

Are there things in your life that scare you? There are plenty of things that scare Little Leopard! Follow along with this baby leopard as he encounters the things that scare him in the forest where he lives. The water is too deep, the trees are too high, and even the wind and rain frighten him. What if the storm gets stronger and something happens to his family? Then his Mommy tells him all the things that she’s scared of, and he realizes that sometimes feeling scared is not necessarily a bad thing.

Filled from cover to cover with bright pictures of spotted leopards and the beautiful forest, What Makes Me Scared? will assure your child that it’s okay to be scared sometimes. Use the discussion questions at the back of this book to teach your child about the important topic of fears and that it’s okay to tell adults when you’re feeling scared, as well as help your child recognize their emotions and make connections to the world around them. What Makes Me Scared? will comfort your child with the knowledge that everyone gets scared sometimes, including their parents.
