Chocovela Surfs: A Story About Overcoming Fear by Zalina Jani and Sameer Jani is a heart-warming picture book for young children. Chocovela and his friends, along with his parents, are enjoying a day at the beach. From volleyball to flying kites, there are so many activities for them to choose from. After playing volleyball, Chocovela and his friends head for the sea to do some surfing, but Chocovela notices his friend Nosely sitting alone on the beach. He approaches Nosely and finds out that his friend is afraid to go surfing. Luckily for Nosely, Chocovela knows exactly how to help. I wonder what Chocovela does to help Nosely, can you guess?

Chocovela Surfs: A Story About Overcoming Fear is a great book for youngsters. I loved reading every page of Zalina and Sameer Jani's new story. Having read a previous Chocovela book, I was excited to see what his next adventure was, and I wasn't disappointed. In this story, the author aims to teach children how to overcome fear, which is a highly important skill to have when growing up. The writing is simple and children will be able to follow along with ease. The illustrations are creative and colorful; children are going to love them just as much as I did. I already knew these brilliant authors had talent, and I'm happy to say that they have exceeded my expectations. Congrats on yet another successful book. I hope you continue writing such great content for children.
