Welcome to Animal Square where all the animals live and play together. Kitty, Mouse, Monkey, Giraffe, Rabbit, and Dog are six very best friends. They each live in their own little home and do lots of things together. Animal Square is a place full of friendship, happiness, and caring. Come join in the fun!

Mouse is afraid often. She won't sit on the swing, because she's afraid she might fall. Climbing and playing soccer scares Mouse too. Luckily Giraffe knows what to do. He gives Mouse a daredevil-pebble, which makes Mouse very brave. She swings very high and plays soccer. She's brave enough to swim! But then Mouse notices she lost her daredevil-pebble. Now what?

A cheerful story about being brave. For toddlers ages 30 months and up, with a focus on the child's social skills.

At Clavis, our focus is on what's best for children. We believe that books play an important role in each new phase in life. Our toddler books are tailored for every stage from 0 to 3 and focus on the five most important themes in their life: daily life, skills, emotions, the world, and language development. The age range and theme of every book in our toddler series can be found on the back cover in the form of a colored train.
