Penguin Random House Shy and Mighty

Our noisy world sometimes feels like it’s not made for shy people. This book will help children better understand their shyness and find their inner voice. Shyness is often misunderstood. It’s not a disability or personality flaw; it’s a complex trait with many positive aspects. However, shyness can lead kids to struggle to speak up in class, get involved in activities, make friends, put themselves forward, and compete. As a result they can miss out on fun and exciting opportunities, and are often overlooked, ignored, and sidelined… but it doesn’t have to be this way.

Butterflies begin their lives so very small.
