Trying something new can feel scary-but it can also be the start of something wonderful.
I'm Afraid of... New Experiences! is part of The Brave Kids' Guide series by Zoey Adams, created to help children face their fears with courage, curiosity, and confidence. This empowering picture book explores the many "firsts" kids face-new foods, new classes, new people, and unfamiliar places-and shows how even the scariest moments can lead to growth, discovery, and pride.
With beautifully expressive illustrations and a warm, encouraging tone, this book reminds kids that it's okay to feel nervous about the unknown-and that every brave moment begins with a single step.
Inside you'll find:
✅ Relatable, everyday scenarios that reflect the challenges real kids face
✅ Encouraging "BRAVE Moments" that help children reframe their fear
✅ An empowering message about trying, failing, learning, and growing
✅ A perfect tool for parents, counselors, and teachers navigating transitions or anxieties
✅ A diverse, emotionally rich art style that helps children feel seen and supported
Whether your child is starting a new school, joining a new group, or just feeling unsure about the unfamiliar, I'm Afraid of... New Experiences! is the perfect companion for turning fear into strength-one brave moment at a time.
