Brave, Brave Mouse
By Morgan, Michaela
Lots of things scare Little Mouse --dark shadows, bright lights, loud noises, and even silence. When his parents go out, Little Mouse is afraid to stay with the babysitter. But a small voice inside him says, "They'll be back soon. Wait and see. You're a brave mouse--as brave as brave can be!" That small voice helps him in many different situations--at the swimming pool, trying new foods, at the dentist, in his dark room at night. But when he goes to the park and doesn't want to play on some of the equipment, his friends call him a scaredy-mouse! Now Little Mouse knows when he can be a brave, brave mouse and do something new. And he knows when he can stand up for himself and say NO!

To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says. That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti's journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds's delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.

Sebastian's Roller Skates
By Rovira, Francesc
Sebastian didn't talk very much, even though he had a lot to say. He wanted to tell the barber not to make his head look like a billiard ball. He wanted to tell his neighbors that he hadn't grown all that much. And he wanted to ask Ester, the little girl who sat in front of him at school, if she wanted to be friends. But he couldn't. He couldn't say any of those things. Sebastian was shy. He was very shy.And then one day he finds an old pair of roller skates in the park. Roller skating is hard to learn, but if you practice, and practice, and practice, and then if you forget about worrying, and forget about falling and just skate, well, everything changes.And sometimes if you forget about worrying and forget about blushing and just talk, well, everything changes again.
