BraveBoy book series
About the Books
Each BraveBoy story is designed for children aged 3–7 and gently explores everyday challenges — from changes and fears to new experiences and self-doubt.
These books aren’t perfect — I wrote, designed, and edited them myself — but they come straight from the heart.
Each story includes fun activities and thoughtful conversation starters, knowing it’s often easier for tamariki to talk about someone else's feelings first.
And the children who have read them so far? They loved them. 💛
