A child learns that courage means being a little brave at the right time.

What Do You Do with a Chance

"What do you do with a problem? Especially one that follows you around and doesn't seem to be going away? Do you worry about it? Ignore it? Do you run and hide from it? This is the story of a persistent problem and the child who isn't so sure what to make of it. The longer the problem is avoided, the bigger it seems to get. But when the child finally musters up the courage to face it, the problem turns out to be something quite different than it appeared. This is a story for anyone, at any age, who has ever had a problem that they wished would go away. It's a story to inspire you to look closely at that problem and to find out why it's here. Because you might discover something amazing about your problem and yourself. What are problems for? They challenge us, shape us, push us, and help us to discover just how strong and brave and capable we really are. Even though we don't always want them, problems have a way of bringing unexpected gifts. So, what will you do with your problem?"--Provided by publisher.

What Do You Do with a Problem?

There is so much in the illustrations by Mae Besom in this book! Read it, re-read it, and then "read" it just looking at the pictures, and look at them again. 

Favorite quote from the book:
"[My problem held an opportunity... ...] It showed me that it was important to look closely because some opportunities only come once."

#worry #fear facing up to problem and finding the opportunity in them. Somewhat simplistic but good for the younger crowd.

Read this with my brother. I thought it was nice for kids but overall didn't really offer me anything.
