Unwrapping Some Illustrations
The Book
Kiss stage fright goodbye...
You're superfly.
Grab that mic
This is the first picture book of the series. It features kids in challenging scenarios and how they build up confidence to succeed. It's a fun book written through lyrical hip-hop inspired verse. How fun is that?
A young girl and her friends are nervous as they face their fears when it comes to speaking and performing in front of a crowd. The good news is that they all have success and find their confidence to share their voice.
The illustrations are colourful and engaging. I Grab the Mic encourages kids to be brave and not give up... a "you've got this" encouragement! Grab the mic and shine! A great book that I highly recommend!
