A very little book for life’s very big moments.

‘Secrets of Being Brave’ is a picture book for all ages.

Lyrical text and whimsical illustrations combine to create a story that is as enchanting as it is powerful. 

Following the physical and spiritual journey of Elly, a Labrador, as she suddenly finds herself in an unfamiliar world, readers are whisked away on the backs of dragonflies and roll through meadows with a baby bear.

‘Fear of the dark keeps us from seeing the light,’ we are reminded – and through seeing the countless acts of incredible bravery by even the world’s tiniest creatures, we learn the rewards of being brave.

The books are perfect for anyone: pre-readers will enjoy the story told by the illustrations; for early readers, there are some fun phrases hidden in the pages; for adults, there is beauty, depth and complexity.

Illustrations by Cecilia Fallongo.

The book can be purchased from any bookshop in the UK, or online here. Every effort has been made to make all parts of the process as eco-friendly as possible.
