A Heartwarming Story About Finding the Courage to Speak Up and Share Your Feelings

What do you do when someone hurts your feelings? When Sammy arrives at school excited for the day ahead, he never expects a friend to say something that leaves him feeling confused and sad. Instead of keeping his feelings bottled up inside, Sammy finds the courage to talk to a trusted adult and ask for help. Through kindness, understanding, and honest communication, Sammy learns that sharing his feelings is a brave thing to do. When Hannah explains what was really bothering her, both friends discover the importance of empathy, forgiveness, and supporting one another. Sammy’s Big Brave Voice is a gentle and uplifting story that teaches young readers valuable social-emotional skills, including self-advocacy, emotional expression, conflict resolution, and the importance of reaching out to trusted adults during difficult moments. Perfect for children, parents, teachers, counselors, and classrooms, this book encourages every child to remember: your voice matters, your feelings matter, and asking for help is a sign of strength.
