"Little Fears" is a book series about the various concerns that children can have. Sometimes, minor harms may grow into big worries if they are ignored. Fortunately, there are fun ways and gentle tools to handle such situations, often through play.

It's Grandpa's birthday, and the whole family is invited to a garden party. Everyone is looking forward to the celebration, except for Elliot, who's worried. He doesn't like being in a crowd, and during the party, he escapes to his grandparents' attic.

Fortunately, Uncle Stephen comes up with a fun way to get Elliot back to the garden with others. While walking on high wooden stilts, the whole world looks different - the adults down below, too!
