Jared the Giant, The Secret is the story of a little boy named Jared who is afraid of spiders. Arachnophobia negatively impacts all aspects of his life. He has a panic attack and runs away every time he sees a spider. One day Jared's mother tells him a secret that empowers him to transform into a giant. From his new perspective as a giant, Jared isn't afraid of tiny spiders any more. Free from his past fears, Jared tries to help his sister overcome her fears.
Educational information on spiders is included in the back of the book to help children learn basic spider anatomy, about arachnophobia, and identify six common spiders in their environment. This picture book is designed to help children ages 3 through 7 cope with fears that arise in their daily lives, especially fears like arachnophobia that are based in the unknown and often magnified by children who feel they are too small to change the situation. Jared the Giant empowers children to view their surroundings not from their fears but from their strengths and encourages confidence. This is the first book in a new series. |
