Julie recommends;

A beautifully illustrated picture book which gets right to the heart of how it feels for children when they are asked to speak in front of their peers in the classroom. This book wonderfully shows with real empathy how terrifying and ultimately rewarding it can feel to find your own voice and is a message every schoolchild will relate to. Perfect for helping children to understand why some of their classmates may find the classroom experience a little daunting and how everybody has something to contribute.
