Help for: The Worrying Worries (Rachel Rooney)

#TheWorryingWorries #NetGalley

This title makes a good companion book to go along with this author’s The Fears You Fear. Both are designed to help kids and to encourage conversation between adult and child, as talking about things in a supportive environment can be so helpful.

This brightly illustrated title acknowledges how a child might feel and how a worry can grow. I like how worry is personified in the illustrations.

Suggestions for coping are also part of the short, rhyming story. Mindfulness practices helpfully come into play.

Note that there is a good section for adults at the end of the book.

Highly recommended. Anyone who has ever worried will be able to relate!

Many thanks to NetGalley and American Psychological Association for this title. All opinions are my own.
