In When I See Red Britta Teckentrup expertly gave voice to a girl's
feelings of rage. Now, with this same wisdom and sensitivity, the
author looks at what it means to be brave. Filled with evocative
collage illustrations and dynamically positioned type, this book
tells the story of a child wandering through a forest and being
startled by a bear. At first the bear is terrifying--it is huge and
unknown. But as the girl moves through the forest she becomes
the bear's companion and, by the time they reach the end of the
forest, its friend.
Offering important insights into the nature of fear this book
helps young readers understand why things are scary, and
discover the satisfaction of making friends with the very things
that make them feel afraid.
