Afraid But Brave: A Simeon Sasquatch Tale

Afraid But Brave: A Simeon Sasquatch Tale

Description

Deep, deep, deep in the woods (well, not too deep - a little deep, but not REALLY deep in the woods), under a great big pine tree, lived Simeon. Simeon was a Sasquatch. What’s more, he was a fearful Sasquatch. Really, all Sasquatches are that way. That’s why very few people have ever seen one Meet Simeon, a kind and gentle Sasquatch who is afraid of…everything. His life is pretty good, except that he is maybe…just a little bit…lonely. When a little girl named Meg suddenly finds her way into his home, Simeon is suddenly left with a choice he has never faced before. If he had the chance to make a friend, could he be brave enough to do it? Afraid but Brave is a sweet and charming story about friendship, adventure, and how love brings out the best in each of us.
