# Say Hi When You're Shy - Hardcover

by **Gill Hasson** (Author), **Sarah Jennings** (Illustrator)

**Supportive advice to help kids cope with shyness.**

All kids feel shy at times. They might not know what to do or what to say. Or it might take them a while to warm up to people. This picture book helps children overcome shyness with manageable strategies:

-   Plan ahead for parties by practicing what to say or do
-   Invite a friend home to practice with just one person instead of a group
-   Join an activity, team, or club, and ask a friend to join too
-   Build up courage through positive self-talk

  
It's okay for kids to feel shy. It often means they are good at observing others and thinking things through before acting. And sometimes kids just _want_ to be on their own for a while. But with these tools, kids can learn to be more confident and comfortable around other children and adults. A section at the back of the book provides additional activity ideas for children and has a note to adults about how to support kids who are shy.

**Kids Can Cope Series**

These inviting picture books offer children a wide range of practical strategies they can use to cope with difficult feelings and situations, such as anger, worry, teasing, and jealousy. With gentle humor, charming illustrations, and kid-friendly advice--plus additional information for children and adults at the back of each book--the Kids Can Cope series gives kids the tools they need to face challenges.
