Otter B Brave

By Pamela Kennedy and Anne Kennedy Brady

Illustrated by Aaron Zenz

Otter B Brave is the third in a series of six children’s picture books that are intended to teach young children basic biblical character traits. In this book, Otter is afraid to do show-and-tell at school. After Otter’s dad tells him that God gives us friends to help us be less afraid, Otter decides to use his friend as his show-and-tell item. Each book in the series ends with a rhyme that reinforces the book’s theme:

“If you are feeling nervous
And you’re shaky in the knees,
Try asking God to make you brave
It’s how you Otter Be!”
