  <default_description>What is courage?  Certainly it takes courage for a firefighter to rescue someone trapped in a burning building, but there are many other kinds of courage too.  Everyday kinds that normal, ordinary people exhibit all the time, like &quot;being the first to make up after an argument,&quot; or &quot;going to bed without a nightlight.&quot;  	Bernard Waber explores the many varied kinds of courage and celebrates the moments, big and small, that bring out the hero in each of us.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[By the same author who wrote Ira Sleeps Over.  Courage is one of those secondary emotions that can be hard for young children to understand and grasp right away.
