Miles, through a story featuring Daisy the wise Westie, hopes to help kids understand they are not alone with their feelings and fears. The new children's book is slated for release in late 2017.

Author Delores Miles has announced the upcoming release of a new book for kids, 'Don't Be Afraid. Be Brave'.

A recent article on Parents.com listed the Top 10 toddler fears, which included things like fear of the dark, monsters and even the weather. Another piece on KidsHealth.com listed movies, nightmares, war and others. In short, kids hold many fears. It is up to parents to help them overcome that long list of fears. Delores Miles' upcoming kids book will help parents help children overcome those fears through an engaging story about sharing their feelings and their fears.

'Don’t Be Afraid. Be Brave' is a story written to help children age 1 to 10 realize they are not alone with their feelings and fears. With sensitivity and humor, it allows each reader realize it is okay to openly share their fears. They will see the main characters, Lizzie and Ben have many of their same fears.  Daisy, the wise talking Westie, helps her young owners to overcome these fears with reason and understanding.  Daisy is a safe messenger to take away the burden of unfounded fears that children carry each day.

"Working as an educator for 41 years, I witnessed the pain children endured because of their fears," Miles stated. "All children have many fears in common. I wrote this book to help them see that it is ok to be afraid but also many fears are unfounded and can be relieved with a simple explanation. Daisy the wise Westie does just that in the book. Parents will not be disappointed."

The new children's book is slated for release on December 1, 2017.
