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.
Author Biography

Happily, following the birth of her sons, Kate rediscovered her passion for picture books and writing. 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. She is the creator of young fiction series Horace & Harriet, a highly illustrated series published by Oxford University Press. Clare has also illustrated dozens of popular children's books, including the best-selling Flying Fergus series written by Olympic champion Sir Chris Hoy, and Joanna Nadin.
