The Shy Little Monster


Book Description

The Shy Little Monster began as a children's song created by Stephanie Leavell. Stephanie - a mom, music educator, and Berklee-trained music therapist - wanted to create a sweet and silly (not scary!) Halloween song that would delight her preschool music groups. Illustrator Sarah Pilar Echeverria and Stephanie are friends (they were born on the same day, in the same hospital, but became friends much later!) who bonded over their love of creating. Sarah is a mom of two with a lifelong passion for art and an everlasting love for children's books. She hopes her own illustrations can spark excitement and creativity in kids. This book shows kids that it's okay to be shy (so are Stephanie and Sarah!), it's okay to ask for help and, most importantly, good friends are always there to offer some encouragement and help you find your voice.

Little Unicorn Is Shy


Book Description

Mr. Men meets The Color Monster--with a unicorn!--in the fourth book in this series that taps into the current trend of books about childhood emotions, this one about shyness. A little unicorn's rainbow-colored mane shifts to a single color when he's feeling a particularly strong emotion. When he's feeling shy, like when he needs to speak up in class or meet someone new, his mane turns purple. But when he repeats a breathing exercise, his rainbow returns--and if he ever feels shy again, he'll know just what to do. This distinctive series about coping with strong feelings integrates a breathing exercise into the story, making these books perfect for parents who are seeking practical tools for their children. With accessible, mainstream artwork and unicorn character appeal, each book focuses on just one emotion, allowing parents and children to dive deeper into individual moods. Little Unicorn is Sad will release at the same time.

Whenever he tries getting close to them, he realizes they just can’t see him. Now that the Day of the Dead is fast approaching, what can he do to make them notice him and to share with them something he loves?
