Sometimes I Don't Like to Talk (But Sometimes I Can't Keep Quiet!)

Ages 5 - 10. Extreme shyness is one of the most common childhood problems. This book tells the story of a girl who, taking one small step at a time, learns to speak up in school and make new friends. With humorous illustrations and simple language, the book shows children how shyness can be overcome with the aid of patient adults who consistently and gently help them move out into the world.
