Description
A poignant exploration of fear, this book helps children understand why we feel afraid. After a thunderstorm causes the lights to go out, Max asks his father about fear, and his father begins to describe its contours.
He explains what it feels like when fear shows up, and the many things that can make us afraid: shadows, feeling alone, and losing something precious. The stunning imagery and poetic text will help children learn to understand their feelings.
Even if our fear can stop us in our tracks, we have to keep going. This book is a thoughtful way for young readers to begin thinking about the many reasons we feel afraid, and how to face them with courage.
