I’m Not a Scaredy Cat: a Prayer for When You Wish You Were Brave by Max Lucado
I’m a big cat. I’m a strong cat. I’m not a scaredy-cat . . . except when . . .
From New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado comes I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat, a hilarious new picture book to help kids manage their fears and worries and learn to trust God.
Follow a silly series of misadventures as scaredy-cat faces his worst fears: an appalling abundance of (gulp!) yellow and pink sprinkles on his donut, an elephant on the verge of a ginormous sneeze, and the terrifyingly loud chime of a clock. For each of the fears, Max provides this reassuring child’s version of Philippians 4:6–9:
“God, you are good.
God, you are near.
God, you are here!
And, God, you love me.”
A fun read for children and parents, I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat will open doors for important conversations about fear in a nonthreatening way and help you instill godly bravery in your kids.
Our Thoughts
I’m Not a Scaredy Cat by Max Lucado is a sweet story filled with wonderful illustrations. My younger daughter is a worrier. She is often feeling anxious about things that haven’t happened yet or ‘what if’ situations. She enjoyed reading through the story. It helped her see that she isn’t the only one who gets scared or feels worried. This book shows kids that it’s okay to feel that way, and what they can do if they’re feeling scared. She likes flipping through the book and looking at the pictures and telling her own cat story as well.
