Juvenile

A kitty named Jasper takes great pride in his fearlessness. But the truth is, there's one thing that really scares him. Jasper is determined to keep it a secret, but will his sister and friends find out? This is the perfect story for anyone who needs reassurance that having a fear isn't anything to be ashamed of

With a simple, witty story and free-spirited illustrations, Peter H. Reynolds entices even the stubbornly uncreative among us to make a mark—and follow where it takes us. Her teacher smiled. "Just make a mark and see where it takes you." Art class is over, but Vashti is sitting glued to her chair in front of a blank piece of paper. The words of her teacher are a gentle invitation to express herself. But Vashti can't draw - she's no artist. To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says. That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti's journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds' delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.
