This story, although with a slightly negative title, is beautiful tale of conquering fears and spreading empathy. Written by award-winning author and illustrator Francesca Sanna, who many of you may know from writing "The Journey" this has a similar set up but is about something we can all empathise with When a young girl travels to a new country and starts a new school, her Fear tells her to be alone and afraid. How can she hope to make friends if she doesn't understand their language? This book shows us the importance of sharing your Fear with others - after all, everyone carries a Fear with them, even if it's small enough to fit into their pocket!
A great book to listen too but also has some amazing illustrations!
