Mia's Brave First Day

By Mrs. Amanda Carter Ivey

A new school can feel enormous-especially when your tummy is full of butterflies.

Mia is nervous about her first day. Will her teacher be kind? Will she make a friend? Will she be brave enough to speak?

With a little paper heart in her pocket and one small promise to herself, Mia walks through the big blue doors. Along the way, she discovers that courage can begin with a tiny wave, a quiet answer, or a kind invitation.

Mia's Brave First Day is a warm, beautifully illustrated story that helps children understand that being brave does not mean never feeling nervous. It means taking one small step even when you do.

Perfect for:

- Children starting school or entering a new classroom
- Helping young readers manage nervous feelings
- Classroom and bedtime read-alouds
- Social-emotional learning activities
- Encouraging kindness, confidence, and friendship

Includes a discussion prompt for grown-ups and a "My Brave Step" activity for children.
