Sometimes courage is loud like an elephant, and sometimes it’s quiet like a llama.

Lily, a young autistic girl with a vivid imagination, wants to sing the solo in the school’s choir show. However, the thought of standing at center stage turns her heart a gloomy grey. School is overwhelming enough when no one is watching. Now all eyes will be on her. Will she overcome her fear and be bold and brave?

Bold and Brave is a whimsical picture book showcasing the heartwarming bond of family while visually drawing readers into Lily’s experience and inspiring them to be bold and brave. It’s aimed at readers aged 3 to 8.

I have always LOVED reading to the Little ones and encouraging the Preschool through Elementary aged kids to read. Bold and Brave by K.A. Cummins is the latest Childrens Book that I have had the chance to read to Little Ones. 

I am seeing many authors writing books for the Little ones that are not only reading but Character Building Books.  First of all, I really LOVE how the Author highlights that Lily is an Autistic Girl. I know a couple of young ones, Lily's age, that have Autism, and I enjoyed reading this book to them. BRAVE doesn't come easy for young kids, but especially not for those with autism. The author really reaches out not only to the Autism Community with this book, but the General Population also. I think the way the author writes this book is OUTSTANDING. I truly LOVED the Character, Lily. Her parents are encouraging to her in all she does. The Discussion questions at the end of the Book are a wonderful thing for everyone of all ages. The Illustrations in the Book really are bright and beautiful, AMAZING! The overall message of being BRAVE is being able to take chances in life no matter the circumstances. I HIGHLY recommend this book for Kids 3 to 10. GREAT BOOK!

More from K.A. Cummins

“Bold and Brave” is about a young autistic girl who wants to sing a solo in the school’s choir show. While a colorful pair of socks initially inspired the fiction story, it was my personal experiences as a woman and as a mother that most influenced it.

 

Stories often use words to draw readers into what a character experiences, but I wanted to do something different for this story. I wanted the illustrations to show readers the parts of the young girl’s experience that are often harder to explain.

 

For some, the smallest actions can take effort and courage, and their boldness and bravery doesn’t always show on the outside.

 

I hope “Bold and Brave” inspires readers, and provides an accessible insight into one autistic experience.
