Meik Wiking

Sue Meikle has always been obsessed with picture books, and after working as an Early Years Specialist for over 25 years, she has read stories to children from Stockport to South Africa. In schools, in early years centres, while on forest school adventures... Sue has even read stories on a travelling play bus! So, perhaps it was always in the stars for Sue to not just read books, but write them, too! When she's not reading or writing stories, Sue can be found walking her dog or chauffeuring her teenagers around the Greater Manchester area (because that’s where they live… in a home that they made from a derelict barn!)

Listen. Care. Share

There are few people who have not gone to a party, a business presentation, a meeting or social occasion feeling a lack of confidence or an increased amount of self-consciousness. Reading this book will help transform the former wallflower into a sunflower. The Little Book of Confidence shows us how to challenge our preconceived notions about confidence. Through tips, quotes and practical exercises we can learn how to restore or improve positive faith in ourselves through heightened levels of competence, compassion and self-awareness.But this is more than a book about selfconfidence. To be in someone&#39;s confidence is a complement of trust in a friendship or business relationship. To have confidence in a proposal, a plan or a person is a declaration of positivity. Confidence is also an expression of self-assurance that is transmitted through body language.Throughout this book, different aspects of confidence are clearly presented in bite-sized nuggets of information and inspiration showing the reader how to get the best out of this often-elusive quality.
