When Sandra moves to a quiet country town and starts at a new school, she dreams of making friends and fitting in. But one innocent misunderstanding changes everything. Suddenly, the girls she hoped would be her friends are whispering behind her back, turning away, and leaving her out.
Confused and hurt, Sandra wonders what she did wrong. The loneliness feels unbearable—until she begins to see that courage doesn’t always mean being brave on the outside. Sometimes it means finding your voice, staying kind when others aren’t, and learning to believe in yourself again.
As Sandra discovers new hobbies, explores the beauty around her, and opens her heart to unexpected friendships, she learns that being true to who you are is the bravest thing of all.
Finding Courage is a heartwarming story about friendship, bullying, and the quiet strength it takes to stand tall. A perfect read for ages 8–12 who are learning about self-confidence, empathy, and the power of kindness.
