The world is full of exciting new things for Sam to try...but new things can be scary! Can his mom help him figure out how to face his fears? Sam is getting older, and every day there are new things for him to try, from a trip to a farm, to going to a new friend's house, to the first day of school. But Sam can't help but worry about all these new things--what if he doesn't like them? His mom helps him figure out what small steps he can take, little by little, so that he realizes he can handle it. Includes a Note to Parents & Caregivers with more information about helping children face their fears.
