«Guillermo y el miedo» is the children's story by Christine Nöstlinger, published by Santillana Educación, S.L. in paperback (72 pages, in Spanish).
Guillermo is six years old and cannot explain what frightens him at night; he believes only babies feel fear, so he pretends to be very brave in front of others. The story teaches how parental understanding and support help overcome childhood fear.
It is part of the Yellow Series and includes illustrations by the author. It was originally published as «Willi und die Angst». Christine Nöstlinger received the Andersen Prize in 1984.
Recommended for children aged 6 and up and for sharing with the family: the story shows the role of parents in dealing with childhood fear.
