At home, Lizzie is playful, silly, and full of personality. But in new social situations, her heart races and the words disappear. When grown-ups call her "shy," Lizzie wonders what that means — and whether something is wrong with her. With her mom by her side, she discovers a new perspective: she isn't "just shy" — she's simply warming up.

Why Shy? is a gentle picture book for ages 3–8 that helps kids and grown-ups talk about confidence, connection, and everyone's own pace.
