Shelty's Mount Chocorua Scare: The Trail of Encouragement

By jmacwrites

When fear freezes your paws... will you find the courage to climb?

Shelty's Mount Chocorua Scare: The Trails of Encouragement is a heartwarming adventure about a little Border Collie with a big heart-and an even bigger challenge. Shelty loves her master, Mike. She listens, learns, and follows wherever he goes. But when Mike and his brother plan a hike up a towering mountain, Shelty is told she's not strong enough to come along.

That doesn't stop her.

In this delightful tale for ages 3 to 8, young readers will follow Shelty as she sneaks into the car, surprises the hikers, and joins a journey that tests her courage, trust, and determination. But when the mountain trail gets steep and fear takes over, Shelty freezes, left alone, behind a rock, too afraid to move.

What happens next is a beautiful story of resilience, quiet bravery, and the unseen ways God cares for all His creatures... even the small, scared ones.

Children will learn:

That fear is something we all face, and we can overcome it

How God helps us even when we feel alone

The power of encouragement, patience, and second chances

That even the smallest among us can do something big

Blending rich storytelling, gentle faith themes, and relatable emotions, Shelty's Mount Chocorua Scare invites children and their grown-ups into a conversation about fear, courage, and how we grow stronger when we choose to try again.

Perfect for bedtime reading, Sunday school lessons or quiet moments snuggled up with your favorite little adventurer-this story reminds us that sometimes the bravest climb starts with just one shaky step.
