When You're Scared

32 pp. | Owlkids | March, 2019 | Trade ISBN 978-1-77147-365-1 $17.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Véronique Joffre. "He's a little scared" describes both a cub about to jump into a Dumpster and a boy about to jump into a lake. Will the boy overcome his fear in a different scenario--i.e., when he discovers that the cub needs help? The collages in this elegantly spare plug for cross-species empathy depict two parent-child pairs peaceably coexisting at a campground.
