You love swimming at the pool, but you're terrified of the lake, or any body of water where you can't see bottom. You make up excuses not to join your friends when they go boating or swimming. But when you're teased about your fear, do you stand strong? Or do you swallow your fear and follow the crowd? Depending on the decisions you make, you could end up in deep water or standing on solid ground, knowing what real bravery is all about.

Author · 13 books
As an American Girl author and editor, Erin Falligant has developed books across a number of series, including Angelina Ballerina, Hopscotch Hill School, and American Girls Short Stories. While writing Braving the Lake, a story with more than 20 endings, she had great fun imagining the many paths the story could take. She views the Innerstar University™ books as “wonderfully challenging to write and a great teaching tool for readers, who can read the stories again and again to find out how the decisions they make lead to different outcomes.” Ms. Falligant has a master's degree in child clinical psychology and coaches Girls on the Run, where she helps girls build self-confidence and create paths of their own near her home just outside of Madison, Wisconsin.
