The Little Book of Big Fears

40 pp. | Owlkids | August, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-1-77147-047-6 $16.95
(3) K-3 "C is for Claire, who recoiled from legumes. / D is for Drew, who hid from raccoons." Steady rhymes and winkingly somber paintings showcase kids facing relatable fears, both mortal and psychological--for example, fear of one's "replacement" (younger sibling). In an afterword, the letters of the alphabet not featured combine into an inspirational message.
