Be Brave Beatrice is about a girl who is sick. All she can do is lie in
bed and feel terrible. She wants to run and play and go outside. She
wants to see her friends but sicker and sicker she gets. The only way to
get better is to take foul-tasting medicine. She tries.
Be Brave Beatrice encourages children to face their fears and shows them
how important it is to keep trying. It is a story that every child,
parent and carer will be able to relate to. Children get sick, and
parents and doctors help them get well again. This often includes taking
medicine that tastes gross and involves challenges for children, parents
and carers alike.
