    I’m a big cat. I’m a strong cat. I’m not a scaredy-cat . . . except when . . .

    I'm Not a Scaredy-Cat- A Prayer for When You Wish You Were BraveI’m Not a Scaredy Cat

    Written by Max Lucado

    Illustrated by Shirley Ng-Benitez

    Publisher’s Synopsis: From New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado comes I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat, a hilarious new picture book to help kids manage their fears and worries and learn to trust God.

    Follow a silly series of misadventures as scaredy-cat faces his worst fears: an appalling abundance of (gulp!) yellow and pink sprinkles on his donut, an elephant on the verge of a ginormous sneeze, and the terrifyingly loud chime of a clock. For each of the fears, Max provides this reassuring child’s version of Philippians 4:6–9:

    “God, you are good.

    God, you are near.

    God, you are here!

    And, God, you love me.”

    A fun read for children and parents, I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat will open doors for important conversations about fear in a nonthreatening way and help you instill godly bravery in your kids.

    Ages 6-10 | Publisher: Thomas Nelson | October 3, 2017 | ISBN-13: 978-0718074913
