What is Encouraging Confidence: learning to not be shy about?

Rhino is gentle and kind, but he often feels shy when faced with new people and unfamiliar situations. With encouragement, positive self-talk and small, brave steps, he begins to understand that confidence can grow with practice. As Rhino tries new things and celebrates his progress, children are encouraged to talk about their own feelings and worries. This warm, accessible story includes ideas and discussion prompts to help young readers recognise emotions, build self-belief and feel more comfortable being themselves.
