Kai the Honu is afraid of everything he sees. He can't even play hide-and-seek with his friends because his overactive imagination causes him to run away and ruin everyone's fun. He thinks a long seaweed is a giant eel, mistakes a huge coral reef for a sea monster and confuses an old sunken boat for a shark. Just when he decides to stop being afraid, Kai is faced with his most challenging test of bravery. Using a bit of wit, quick thinking and courage, Kai is able to rescue his friends and himself from danger, becoming the bravest honu in the sea.
My son's name is Kai. He is autistic and has lots of fears that can be tough to work through with spoken word. Sometimes he finds connections through books or movies and I'm hoping he will find a good lesson in this story. Maybe one day he will appreciate (and not be afraid of) what his name means.
Wonderful Story
