Fun, comic-style illustrations and simple text show us many different situations when people feel shy - meeting new people, being asked questions at school, being in a play, going to parties, etc. These situations bring on wobbly feelings, red faces, and worried giggles, but we also learn that feelings of shyness can recede when friends are understanding, and that grown-ups can feel shy too. Two pages of notes for parents and teachers and a list of further books to read will be of use to adults working with shy children.
