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.
