Description: From the creators of the highly acclaimed Why Do We Cry? comes this poignant evocative exploration of the many reasons we feel fear. After a clap of thunder the lights in Max's house go out. Max's father lights a candle and Max asks Dad have you ever been afraid? His father says everyone is afraid sometimes. Then he slowly and carefully begins to describe the contours of fear. He explains how even small fears can seem to flood everything around us. He enumerates the many different things that can make us afraid: shadows feeling lonely losing what we love not being able to control the future and fading away. And he reassures his young son that while our fears can stop us in our tracks we must keep going. Award - winning author Fran Pintadera's poetic text together with Ana Sender's stunning imagery make for an entrancing picture book about emotions. It makes clear that fear is a normal part of life and that when we can identify our fears it's easier to accept them and to move past them. A wonderful conversation starter this book could be used to help young children understand and process their fears and more generally why we feel our feelings. It makes an excellent choice for lessons on social - emotional learning. Back matter includes informational content about the different types of fear the purpose and usefulness of fear and an activity to further explore some of the story's key concepts.
