Synopsis
Based on the true story of the birth of his son, Be Brave, Be Brave, Be Brave recalls the thoughts of author Anthony Falcon upon holding his child after the baby and his wife endured a life-threatening labour during Hurricane Harvey's landfall in Corpus Christi,Texas. Having felt adrift from his Native roots, Falcon found himself with a deep desire to understand his heritage so that he might better bestow it upon his son. Through a list of precepts, each ending with 'be brave', the book tells the tale of little Lakota's perilous arrival into the world, of Falcon's struggle to reconnect with a heritage that was lost to him, and a father's attempt to describe what it means to be a Native American man in America today.

Review
"Mason's watercolor artwork mixes moments of striking portraiture alongside stormy landscapes, and Falcon, who bases the story on the birth of his own son, named Lakota, offers a multilayered celebration of resilience, ancestry, and bravery." -Publishers Weekly
About the Author
F. Anthony Falcon found his love for books in the library at William B. Travis Elementary School in his hometown of Corpus Christi, Texas. His love for history led him to research his own Native American heritage in the hope that he could one day instill that pride in his children. Anthony has a love for writing as well and a huge imagination which, when put together, makes for some very interesting reading. He currently resides in Corpus Christi, Texas with his wife and son.
