Targeted at kids grade 5 and up, Brave! features realistically rendered, decent, but flawed tween characters and examines some of the same issues explored in Awkward, the rivalries between various school groups and the ways to deal with the inevitable school bullies. Brave! is slated for a simultaneous December release for both the hardcover with a cover price of $24.00 ($31.50 Can), and the paperback edition, which will have a cover price of $11.00 ($14.50 Can).
