An excellent title to read to children before they participation in a performance of event in public. This book bring up topics of excitement, confidence and preparation for public speaking or performances . It provides ideas and mechanisms that children can use to cope with feelings of anxiety surrounding performances and public events. Great as a teacher resource for early grades engaging in talent shows or performances.

What a lovely and informative read! This book is about tackling stage fright and performance anxiety that can be very, very common. It makes the concept of stage fright feel relatable and easy to diffuse through some tried and true tactics like breathing, counting, and finding a familiar face in the audience to focus on. There is a variety of events shown that characters are participating in, so children will likely find a relatable experience occuring in the illustrations to identify with. The illustrations are beautiful and fill the pages with diverse characters and color schemes that kids will be happy to engage with! The cover is a great example of what the book is about, and would definitely draw my attention in a bookstore to take a look!

*I'd like to extend a big thank you to Susi Schaefer, the author and illustrator, the publisher, Sounds True Publishing, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this lovely children's picture book, All Eyes on You. I will share my review on Amazon, Goodreads, and Barnes & Noble upon release.*
