Bookroo's summary

A little bear is scared of bad dreams, tall slides, and being alone. Sometimes, fear strikes without reason. Join him as he discovers ways to feel safe and brave. Can he find comfort in the face of fear? This heartwarming tale offers gentle guidance for children learning to cope with their own anxieties, with a special note for parents and teachers to reinforce its positive messages.

From the publisher

Children often feel afraid. This book, with its comforting words and illustrations, will help children address those fears and learn some new ways to cope with being afraid. First, a little bear describes some of the things that frighten him, like bad dreams or big, tall slides, or when his mother goes away. Sometimes, he just feels scared and doesn’t know why! But he learns there are things he can do to make himself feel better. A Note to Parents and Teachers reinforces the positive messages in the book.
