I am Brave...and I Know it is the third book of this empowering children's trilogy series, specifically for the teen audience. I am Beautiful...and I Know it written for the young child, and I am Brilliant...and I Know it written for the early reader. This collection of teaching books stays with the child and helps guide them as they move through life, offering playful and important messages, personal stories and perspectives while promoting meaningful and provocative conversations. This series was born from Sophie's best-selling adult book, Beautiful Brilliant and Brave. It is Sophie's mission to remind all of us, who have the privilege to influence: from parents, grandparents, guardians, and educators, of the kinds of impact we each have, not only on those in our care but also on the next generation.

Sophie is a certified professional Life Coach and makes it her business to empower young people and adults, support and teach effective parenting strategies, and help couples and families build functional and healthy homes. Sophie uses education and information to inspire others who want to discover their best in order to love their life, without apology. www.lifecoachingsophielazarou.com Suzanne Scotland RN BScN CON(C) is an oncology nurse and has worked at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto for over thirty years. She is the mother of three sons, a cuddly cat (Ziggy) and a derpy corgi (#MortyLongbottom). She values kindness, humour, self-awareness, and the inclusiveness that is created when we embrace our sameness, and support and respect each other's uniqueness - all at once. She is grateful to have worked with Sophie on this book that was fun to write and that has such personal meaning. Though written for grade school children, it became apparent that the book's message about the inherent brightness that we all possess resonates with people of all ages, many of whom were eager to share how their early learning experiences in our education system influenced how they perceived their abilities and intelligence for years to come. Like Sophie, Suzanne believes that there are many kinds of "knowing", and that learning is a life-long process that "doesn't just happen within the four walls of a classroom".

Although born and raised in the big city of Toronto, she spent a large amount of her childhood in the Madawaska Valley, with the rivers, forests, and people. Using the ordinary euphorias in our lives, and the falseness of mediocrity, she finds inspiration from her surroundings. For her, art is a translation of curiosities. She looks forward to a life full of creation, exploration and constant learning. You can find Roxanne and her work at www.roxannegeddes.com
