Where Can I Find Confidence? is a warm and thought-provoking illustration book.
Mary is shy and quiet. She runs slowly and does not sing really well. Compared to other alpacas, she seems like she’s not good at anything. She only gets envious of others because they are good at something. But a friend told her that as long as she has confidence, she can be good at something, too.
What is confidence? Where can she find it?
She decided to embark on the adventure of finding confidence. During this journey, she read hundreds of books in the library that she had never read before. She overcomes her fear of darkness and climbed the tallest mountain in the world. She learned how to dive while an alpaca could not. She did a lot of great things. After courageously trying new things, she is more empowered, and that is confidence, as she likes herself more.
Through a lively story and exquisite illustration, this book helps children understand the real meaning of confidence and encourages and cheers them on to appreciate themselves.
