Overview

When Papa breaks his leg, it heals, but he won't try walking again. The family becomes sad-and sadder. A neighbor tells Liana that Papa has lost his courage. Determined to help, she asks everyone in the neighborhood, ""What is courage?"" The answers are simple, a recognition of courage in small daily tasks. But will it be enough to help Papa find his courage to try to walk? Gorgeous illustrations join the simple text for an inspirational story that helps each of us find courage in the small moments of life. Those small acts of courage build a foundation for the hard times, for the times when you take that next step only because of courage-that never slows down, never gets tired, and never gives up.
