I'm Scared (My First Comics)

Illustrated by Matthew Holm
The fourth board book in Matthew and Jennifer L. Holm’s My First Comics series! I’m Scared teaches young children a simple lesson about overcoming fears and trying something new.

In I’m Scared, Chilly the snowflake is a real worrywart. He is scared of everything! The reassuring narrator in this very simple, comic book–style board book gently shows Chilly that sometimes, to have fun, it is important to face your fears and try something new!
 
Matthew and Jennifer L. Holm are the bestselling creators of Babymouse and Squish, and Jennifer is the author of novels such as The Fourteenth Goldfish. The Eisner Award–winning siblings use panel frames, speech balloons, and thought bubbles to teach children how to read a story. Be sure to look for the other My First Comics books: I’m Grumpy, I’m Sunny!, and I’m Silly!
