Description

An awesome rhyming tale about normalising fear and finding inner powers by realising there's a hero inside of us all. Scared Maisie Brown dreams of being a fearless superhero - because they never get frightened, right? But when Dad explains that even the strongest, boldest and bravest hero can sometimes feel afraid, and that's perfectly fine, Maisie realizes there's a superhero in all of us. With fun characters, rhyming text and a wonderfully relatable take-away message about normalizing feelings, this heart-warming book is an amazing addition to any little hero's bookshelf.

She now lives by the sea and spends her days gleefully immersed in literary adventures of her own making.Clare Elsom is a children's illustrator and author.
