I'm Feeling (a Little Bit) Shy

This little girl sometimes finds it very hard to say hello. She struggles going into groups or parties and is very scared of starting a new school. However, when she shares her feelings, she learns that everyone feels shy at some time or another — even her exuberant big brother! Realizing that shyness is just a feeling that will pass, enables her to begin to find her own way to deal with new situations. She doesn’t have to know what to say — it’s okay to just watch and listen until she is ready to join in. And nervous butterflies she feels on her first day? They help her pay attention — and notice children who might become wonderful new friends! The believable characters, busy scenes and ingenious holes in the pages make this a heartwarming story that young children can relate to. It’s a perfect book to help children cope with feeling shy.
