What is Shaw's solo about?

Shaw loves to sing, but performing in front of other people makes him nervous. When Mr Grizley’s class is invited to sing for the mayor, Shaw is chosen to perform a solo. As the big day approaches, he worries that stage fright will stop him from sharing his special talent. With encouragement from his classmates and support from his teacher, Shaw learns that being brave does not mean feeling calm all the time. Can he find the confidence to step forward and sing?
