Follow along on an epic adventure set in the rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland. Determined to carve her own path in life, a skilled archer named Princess Merida defies a sacred age-old custom—and inadvertently unleashes a beastly curse upon the kingdom. To set things right, Merida embarks on a perilous quest and discovers the meaning of true bravery.
Brave is, essentially, a picture book version of the film (highly condensed, of course). As such, it doesn't really offer anything new to anyone who has seen the film.
I loved it anyway, though. I mean, come on. Merida is a fiery-haired Scottish warrior princess with personality. She has relationships with her family that people can actually relate to. She's fierce
but she's also funny
and kind and she loves her family. Oh, and she's in no rush to be married off to some random prince, handsome or otherwise.
She's like the antidote to all those early Disney Princesses who sit around looking pretty and waiting to be saved and get married. Merida saves herself, and everyone else - with some help from her family. What's not to love?
I am totally a Merida fangirl.
If you don't fall for that little face, you have a heart of stone.
I have a lot of love for her. I also have enough gifs for reviews for the next year!
This book could be used to demonstrate the importance of families, relationships, and there culture. The goal would be for the child to demonstrate understanding of his/her family and an emerging awareness of their own culture and ethnicity. The objective would be for children to describe his/her family structure and family role.
I quite enjoyed reading this one to the kids. It opens up a few topics of discussion. The pictures are well done, I assume they’re from the film, though I don’t watch television so I can’t be sure.
when reading this book I think it would go great for todays kids because this book is a movie too. the movie is called brave, you can assign the student to write about lessons they learn from their parents and what they are good at. when doing this I thought it could be good for 1st and 2nd graders because you can do literature study follow along with you children.
This is my favourite book its funny and really cool my favourite character is the three twins there so Hilarius.I recomend from ages 4-12 depending on you're personality
Kids gave it 4 stars and 5 stars so 4.5 is the overall. Kids really liked it, laughing alot and interupting to ask questions or state what they thought was going to happen next.
