Ben and the Brave Echidna
Book Three
Bravery doesn�t always roar.
Sometimes, it curls into a ball and waits.
Ben and the Brave Echidna is the third book in the Highland Animal Adventures series, inviting young readers back into Tasmania�s Highlands for another thoughtful journey of discovery.
When Ben encounters an echidna behaving differently from what he expects, his curiosity is met with concern. The echidna isn�t charging away or hiding completely�it�s standing its ground, quietly determined. As Ben watches from a distance, he begins to understand that bravery doesn�t always look bold or loud. Sometimes, it�s about knowing when to pause, protect yourself, and trust your instincts.
This gentle story blends real echidna behaviour with a child�s perspective, helping young readers learn about one of Australia�s most unique animals while reinforcing important values like patience, empathy, and respect. Ben�s experience encourages children to recognise different kinds of courage�both in wildlife and within themselves.
Set against the rugged beauty of Tasmania�s Highlands, the story once again places the land at the heart of the adventure. The environment shapes the lesson, showing that survival in the wild often depends on calm awareness rather than force.
Perfect for shared reading or early independent readers, Ben and the Brave Echidna continues the series� calm, reassuring tone while offering a meaningful message about quiet strength.

Ben and the Brave Echidna reminds readers that courage isn�t always about moving forward�it�s also about knowing when to stay still.
Sometimes the bravest thing you can do�
is trust who you are.
