The Big Slide - Hardcover

by Daniel Kirk (Author), Daniel Kirk (Illustrator)

In this sweet story about facing fears, Little Pup has to call up all his courage--and the help of a friend--to go down the playground slide.

Little Pup isn't as little as he used to be, and he'd love to try out the playground's big slide. Day after day he eyes it, but he just can't seem to work up the courage. Fortunately he meets someone in the same boat--Little Duck--and the two provide each other with just the bravery boost needed to climb that ladder and enjoy the slide! Kids will relate to Little Pup's struggle to gain enough confidence to move out of his comfort zone and try something new.
