Author Teaches Children to Conquer Their Fears in a Charmingly Illustrated Story Book with a Timeless Message
In 'The Stubborn Little Coconut,' P.B. Ayala tells a heartwarming and encouraging story about a coconut who has a fear of the dark and how a little girl helps him defeat it
LONG BEACH, Calif., Jan. 31, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Author P.B. Ayala has published his debut children's book, "The Stubborn Little Coconut," which entertains and comforts kids, especially those who may be afraid of the dark. In the eyes of an adult, the dark is certainly nothing to be scared of. However, to children, there could be a whole other world in the darkness – and a scary one, too! A relatable book for children and beautifully illustrated, this story has the potential to become a nightly bedtime read for children and parents to share together.
Ayala wrote this book coming from a place of understanding for children who have any kind of fears and who sometimes feel misunderstood or invalidated by their parents or other people who can't relate to being afraid of the same things. Through this story, he wants to teach and encourage children to be creative in their problem-solving techniques during times when nobody else can understand or help them overcome their worries.
"I wrote 'The Stubborn Little Coconut' to inspire children who are afraid of anything to understand that there is always a way to overcome your fears," the author said.
The story is written to make children feel heard and understood and let them know that everybody in the whole world has fears, even if they are not talking about them out loud – and that is normal! Ayala's goal is to make sure children know that fear is a natural thing, and they are not alone. The story is meant to help kids overcome any type of fear they may have, not just the fear of the dark.
