Rosie the Rabbit's Brave Bounce
From the uplifting Jen's Gem series comes a tale of courage, friendship, and one very nervous bunny.
It's Jump Day in the breezy meadow, and everyone is hopping with excitement. But Rosie the Rabbit has a secret-she's afraid of heights. The stump looks so high, and the thought of bouncing into the air makes her tummy do somersaults.
While Kip the Penguin, Lulu the Lion, Milo the Monkey, and even Tilly the Turtle, leap with laughter, Rosie wonders if she'll ever be brave enough to try. With gentle encouragement from her friends and a whole lot of heart, Rosie discovers that being brave doesn't mean you're never scared-it means you try, even when you are scared.
Rosie the Rabbit's Brave Bounce is the second adventure in the Jen's Gem series, following Kip Finds His Wings. With rich illustrations, lovable characters, and a gentle life lesson, this story is perfect for young readers learning to face their fears-one brave bounce at a time.
Includes the Jen's Gem Pledge-a positive affirmation for growing hearts.

"I will cheer on my friends and lift others up."

"I will be kind to myself and others."
- Rosie practices self-compassion. She doesn't pressure herself to be perfect and learns it's okay to feel afraid.
"I will try my best and never give up."
- Rosie takes her time but doesn't quit. Her small bounce is a huge leap in courage.
