Overview

Is your child afraid to try something new even when they really want to? If you're looking for a meaningful gift -one that inspires courage, confidence, and heart-Think Big is the perfect pick. Think Big is a beautifully written and illustrated social-emotional learning (SEL) story that helps children recognize the power of their thoughts. Maria, a relatable first grader, faces more than just a new classroom-she faces her fear of doing something she's always wanted to try: the firepole. With the help of two inner voices, Mr. Big, who lifts her up, and Mr. Small, who holds her back, Maria learns how to shift from fear to bravery and from self-doubt to self-belief. This powerful growth mindset story helps children understand that their thoughts can lift them up or hold them back, building essential skills in self-awareness, emotional regulation, and resilience. With inclusive Type 1 diabetes representation and playful, relatable inner voices guiding the way, Think Big makes SEL simple, tangible, and fun-whether used at home, in the classroom, or in therapy. Perfect for parents, teachers, and counselors, this story is ideal for fans of Bubble Gum Brain, Fantastic Elastic Brain, and Inside Out. Give your child a story that inspires brave thinking, emotional strength, and unstoppable confidence-because mindset matters. With a decade of teaching experience, a degree in Math and Education, and a passion for growth mindset, author Rashda Munawar brings heart and authenticity to every page. She calls British Columbia home, where she lives with her husband and three children.
