A children’s storybook about how we can create magic in someone else’s life by showing simple gestures of empathy, support and persistence.
Kim, a tiny yellow Birdie has broken her wing and is scared to attempt flying. One day, Tim, the red bird comes and encourages her to give flying a try. After a few unsuccessful attempts, Tim asks her to take a leap of faith and jump, promising to catch her if she falls.
Will the little birdie fall or will she fly?
From the author: Sometimes in life, we encounter situations that make us feel like giving up. However, receiving a little bit of faith and encouragement from someone can give us the courage to try again. These gestures may come from different people in different phases of life, but they can hold a world of meaning in someone’s life.

Unlocking the Power of Empathy: A Must-Have for Young Readers
As a parent always on the lookout for meaningful children’s books, I found a true gem in 'What if I fall? What if you fly?' This enchanting storybook does more than capture the imagination; it teaches invaluable lessons on empathy, support, and the courage to try new things through wonderfully simple yet profound interactions between its charming characters, Tim and Kim.
The narrative excels in showing how small acts of kindness and encouragement can have a tremendous impact. Tim's gentle coaxing and unwavering belief in Kim as they traverse their fear of flying serve as a beautiful metaphor for the powers of trust and reassurance in real life. The author’s favorite excerpt, “But darling, what if you fly?” uplifts with its optimistic take on confronting and overcoming fears.
What makes this book stand out is its ability to convey deep and meaningful messages in language and scenarios that children can easily grasp and relate to. It teaches that with a little help, everyone can 'fly,' reaching places they never thought possible.
I enthusiastically recommend 'What if I fall? What if you fly?' to any parent, educator, or guardian eager to introduce the young ones to the concepts of empathy, support, and the beauty of believing in one another. This book isn’t just a delightful read; it’s a tool to help nurture kind, supportive, and brave individuals. Grab this book, and let’s help our children fly to 'anywhere and everywhere.'

Cute!
Loved reading this book.The lesson conveyed is very nice, but I wish storyline could be little more longer! Even little kids can benefit from a few extra pages making it more engaging. Otherwise, great illustrations, and the birds are very cute. I am not sure how it would look if the title would just stay What If I fall?,specially for very young readers!!But overall a good book.Great theme!!Inspiring.

Sweet lesson about encouragement and support
This is a sweet book for small children that emphasizes being supportive and kind, and encouraging others to step out in the face of fear. Good reading for when your little one is in your lap, and to use as a tool to encourage them to fly.

Great for young kids!
Wow, the illustrations are so beautiful. I love how the book ends with the sunset mentioned earlier in the birds’ friendship. Simple message of taking risks and supporting your friends when they also take risks.

Wow, what a beautiful story.
This is an absolutely beautiful story about not giving up and the power of friendship. We can all learn to “fly” if we keep trying. Thank you.

Children’s lessons on fear
“What if I Fall” is a beautifully written children’s story about trying even when you’re afraid. I love that there was a friend there that helped, teaching our children that they can count on others. The illustrations were also beautiful.
