The Courageous Cubs

A parent or guardian would reach for this book when a child is experiencing the instability of the foster care system or navigating the complex emotions of being moved between homes. It is designed specifically to support children who feel they lack a permanent identity or a sense of belonging due to family conflicts or system involvement. Through the metaphorical journey of two lion cubs, the story validates feelings of anger, fear, and confusion while introducing a spiritual anchor in the character of Adonai. Appropriate for children ages 5 to 10, the book functions as both a narrative and a therapeutic tool. It addresses the day to day realities of transitions and biological family visits with a hopeful, religious lens. Parents and caregivers will value the coloring pages that accompany each chapter, allowing children to process their heavy emotions creatively while they read. It is a choice for families seeking a faith based approach to healing from childhood trauma and displacement.
