Inhaltsangabe

Does your child panic before the needle is even out?

They're not being difficult — and this gentle story can help.

Remy loves his stripy socks, his building blocks and how tall he's grown this year… but the doctor's room is another matter. Then a tiny firefly named Pip lands on his sleeve with a secret worth knowing: "a tiny hurt is quick to go."

Together they find four Brave Little Steps — Ask how long, Breathe, Sit up tall, Count to five — and Remy discovers that being brave doesn't mean not being scared.

• A warm read-aloud for ages 3–8
• Built on honest timing, comfort positioning and counting — the techniques nurses and paediatricians actually use
• Honest about the pinch, because a child who's told "it won't hurt" stops believing you

• Bonus activity pages: a calm-breathing exercise and a colour-in brave badge
• Part of the Brave Little Steps series — gentle stories that help children face common childhood fears

Perfect for a first vaccination, a check-up, a blood test, for anxious or sensitive children, and for any little one learning that they are braver than they think.
