What if being brave doesn't mean feeling strong... but choosing to help anyway?
- A Story About Courage, Anxiety, and Taking Brave Little Steps
- A Gentle Story About Fear, Friendship, and Finding Courage
Meet Ollie-a tall, fast ostrich with the longest legs around... and the wobbliest knees.
While the other animals run, play, and laugh in the sunshine, Ollie stays behind. Loud noises, big moments, and new situations make his knees shake and his heart race. He wishes he could be brave-but fear keeps holding him back.
Then one stormy day, everything changes.
When a tiny mouse named Mabel needs help, Ollie is faced with a choice: stay safe and hidden... or step forward, even with his wobbly knees.
In a powerful and heartwarming journey, Ollie discovers that courage isn't about being fearless-it's about caring enough to try.
- Perfect for children ages 3-8
- Encourages emotional awareness and empathy
- Helps kids understand anxiety in a gentle, relatable way
- Teaches bravery through action, not perfection
Includes a thoughtful Author's Note for parents and caregivers with practical tools to help children navigate fear and anxiety.
Because sometimes the bravest thing you can do... is take one small step.
