Ada the Brave

Ada the Brave Synopsis

The queen's Teller of Stories has woken up sick - and on the day of the big birthday banquet too! Her daughter, Ada, feels too shy and nervous to step into her place. After all, what would she say?

But still, she must head to the palace to share the news . . .Accompanied by a cocky parrot, Godfrey (who swiftly loses the map), Ada sets out on an unexpected and adventurous journey, filled with wild weather and racing rapids, deep bogs and daring leaps.Making some new friends along the way - including a trapped princess and a rather lovely troll - young Ada discovers that she's far bolder and braver than she ever thought possible and, when faced with an expectant queen who likes a good story, she realises that she does have something to say.

In fact, Ada realises can do anything when she sets her mind to it. She is Ada the Brave - a girl who CAN do.With energetic verse from poet and writer Kathryn Simmonds and cinematic illustrations from Becky Colvin, Ada the Brave is an utterly captivating story that teaches children the power of finding your inner strength and giving things a go - the perfect antidote for self-doubt!
