When the sun sits up high
In the blue summer sky
And you long to dive into the sea,
But you're fixed to the pier
And you're held there by fear …
Be brave. Be all you can be.
This is a love letter to children everywhere encouraging them to embrace their true selves and to live their big, messy, beautiful lives to the full.
Be kind. Be strong. Be curious. Be wrong ...
Be all you can be.
