A self encouraging song to help childrren to "be brave" and not be cowed by opposition of classmates and others into submission. Fear and intimidation are mentally stultifying and can be overcome sometimes by simply a little coaching towards risk taking. The story about John and Pocahontas serves as a reminder that one has to look out for him/her self when it comes to establishing relationships. This song is on the Special Kind of Songs album and features an elementary age child singing that she is "not bashful".

I have taught general music to Kindergarten through graduate music courses at 2 Florida universities.Florida State and Florida Atlantic Universities. I taught at FAU for 34 years. I am past president of the FEMEA (Florida Elementary Music Educators Association) and served on the FEMEA Board for over 6 years. I wrote the Alma Mater for Florida Atlantic University and published 3 albums of childrens songs in 1975-78. They are being used by Florida music teachers even today. I am currently retired enjoying the outdoor sports of my adopted home state of Colorado.
