Benny the Brave in The First Day Jitters (Team Supercrew Series): A children’s book about big emotions, bravery, and first day of school jitters.

Team Supercrew’s Benny the Brave is here to remind kids that they have the power to be BRAVE inside of them whenever they need it! Sarah is having a tough morning as she is about to start a new school on a distant planet, without any friends, and with the fear of having a swamp creature as a teacher and slimy, alive lunch. However, Benny the Brave arrives just in time to help Sarah overcome her fears by changing her negative thoughts using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Through CBT, which focuses on the interconnection of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, children like Sarah learn to regulate their emotions positively. The Team Supercrew Book Series, featuring heroes like Benny the Brave, Keisha the Kind, Chloe the Calm, and Gen the Grit, brings these tools to children and families in a fun, engaging manner, empowering them to discover their own superpowers - to be brave, be kind, be calm, and have grit.
