The story describes Benny, the lion cub's journey towards beating his kids' social anxiety issues while thoroughly outlining his parents' strategies to help him.
Benny starts out as a young cub with severe social difficulties. He fears speaking with his peers and with adults. His insecurity causes him to avoid participating in activities and keeps him isolated.
Benny's mother and father ask themselves, "how can I help my shy kid?"
Things change radically when Benny and his parents meet an old and wise owl. He guides them on a journey through which Benny learns to overcome his anxiety. At the same time, his parents understand what their beloved child goes through and how to support the kid's social anxiety.
It is almost impossible to eliminate or stop kids' social anxiety altogether. Still, it is very much possible to learn how to overcome it.
Benny's journey was not easy; along the way, he and his parents had to overcome one challenge after another. The result was a dramatic change in his ability to defeat his shyness.
Today Benny can communicate with cubs and adults easily; he can speak in class and has a rich social life.
He even fulfilled his dream of playing soccer with his peers.
