Chem­da, Bentzi, and their friends have all the usu­al tri­als and tribu­la­tions that groups of friends must face — mis­un­der­stand­ings and hurt feel­ings, shy­ness and anx­i­ety, wish­ing to do the right thing at the right time but being unsure of how to act, and uncer­tain­ties of all kinds. But now, it seems all their prob­lems are going to be solved for­ev­er. A friend’s uncle has invent­ed a mag­ic potion that will fix every­thing. With just one sip one can be brave, one can be strong, one can be unafraid to tack­le any­thing. A mag­ic potion will be the answer to everyone’s prob­lems. And after each child takes just one sip, it actu­al­ly seems to work!

Fol­low the adven­tures of this group of live­ly friends as they learn what brav­ery and self-con­fi­dence are real­ly all about and what it takes to over­come one’s fears in the real world. Writ­ten as a part of a series for Ortho­dox chil­dren, the val­ues impart­ed are uni­ver­sal, whole­some, and help­ful to all.
