Bookroo's summary

Sam prides himself on being the bravest kid at school, often teasing Max for being a scaredy-cat. But when a spider sends Sam into a panic, it's Max who steps up. Now, Sam fears his secret might get out. Can he face his fear and learn what true bravery means? Discover how courage is more than just being fearless in this charming tale.

From the publisher

Sam is an adorable new character whom preschoolers are sure to identify with. In this debut story, Sam thinks of himself as the bravest kid at school and calls his friends Max a scaredy-cat. But when Sam is scared by a spider, it’s Max who saves the day. Now Sam does have something to be afraid of–what if Max tells everyone that it’s really Sam who’s the scaredy-cat? Expressive, soft-edged illustrations capture the reassuring theme that everyone is afraid of something–it’s how you face your fear that makes you brave.
