Worry Thoughts was written with two little girls in mind who had a lot of big worries. It became a go-to item in their anxiety toolbox, especially at bedtime.
The simplicity of the messaging, the full page illustrations, this combination of what the child is hearing and seeing instills a natural calm or reset.
The unique 3-in-1 format makes for a wonderful Storytime companion for parents, teachers, and therapists.
In Worry Habits, we meet Little C, who feels the need to do certain things until they “feel right”. Touching the light four times, checking under the bed, and repeating specific phrases become rituals that consume his thoughts and hold him back. With courage and curiosity, Little C confides in his mother, and together they seek guidance from a doctor who unveils the truth: Little C has OCD.
In Worry Shy, we meet Little C, a young boy who feels the weight of unease and uncertainty in social situations. Every interaction becomes a minefield of worries, from the fear of saying the wrong thing to the dread of standing out in a crowd. Little C’s mind is constantly racing, and he just can’t shake the anxiety that grips him.
One day, with remarkable courage, Little C confides in his mother, and together they embark on a journey to understand and address his overwhelming struggle. Their path leads them to a compassionate doctor who reveals the truth: Little C is “worry shy”, dealing with a condition that many kids face, Social Anxiety.
