A bear child describes situations that bring about fear--such as bad dreams or tall slides--how it feels to be scared, and what can make things better.

"The short, well-reasoned narrative, child-centered point of view, and practical suggestions make this a good choice for preschoolers." - Booklist When I Feel Scared was featured on the CBS Early Show in September as part of a program about helping children deal with the anniversary of September 11th. Also, in the newsletter of the Bank Street Bookstore, Sara Yu wrote: "Wonderfully written for the youngest children, this gentle book reassures kids that it's okay to feel scared and encourages them to tell someone about their fears."

Included in the 2003 edition of "The Best Children's Books of the Year" by the Children's Book Committee of Bank Street College.
