BY MARIANNE RICHMOND

Be Brave Little One by Marianne Richmond

When I look 
As sure as the sun,
to shine your own way …
And be brave little one!

When I look at you 
shining bright as the sun,
I wish for you this...
Be Brave Little One!

My wish is you’ll listen
To the whispers inside
That speak from your heart,
So truthful and wise.
 
Be brave to begin
to listen inside
to the voice of your heart,
so truthful and wise.  

How far will I go?
What things can I be?
When I get to choose
What brave is to me.


A positive, uplifting book that helps you cheer your child on, from beloved bestselling author, Marianne Richmond, whose books are quickly becoming classics. Be Brave Little One is an affirmation of the courage and bravery inside us all.

When my son was in the hospital, we read your book to him to teach him how to be brave. The book and its message have deeply impacted my family. Thank you for sharing your gift of writing. It brings me daily comfort. — Nancy
I LOVE this book!!! I originally purchased it to give as part of a baby shower gift and I decided to see if my 5 year old niece approved of it. Well, she more than approved and started 'reading' it (she is just learning) and she made up her own words with situations she needs to be brave with. That was enough for me to give her the book and buy another for the shower. — Suzanne
