The Bravest Thing You Can Be Is Yourself


High on the Rock of Gibraltar, hidden beyond the winding trails, is a magical woodland — a safe place that shows up whenever we’re ready to find it.

One bright morning, Sunny Sun Dog and Sheepito leave their woodland home and set off on an adventure — through busy streets, sandy bays, and peaceful parks.

They discover a world full of colour, wonder, noise… and sometimes, moments that feel a bit too much.

With kindness, curiosity, and a sprinkle of magic, they learn that our brains, hearts, and senses all work in beautifully different ways — and that’s something to
celebrate.

A cosy, joyful tale for all ages — especially those who experience the world in their own wonderful way.

About The Author

Gary Lonesborough.png

Christina Marie Giuffré is a coach, leader, and storyteller — and a big believer that everyone, (especially children) deserves to feel loved and valued, just as they are.


Originally from sunny Perth, Western Australia, Christina now calls Gibraltar home, where she inspires people of all ages to embrace their unique selves with love and joy.


As a neurodivergent, queer individual with ADHD, Christina understands that life can be a rollercoaster—but she believes kindness and a sprinkle of humour can make all the difference.


When she’s not writing or coaching, you’ll find Christina traveling the world with her partner, savouring delicious food, or curling up with a good book and a cup of tea.
