Description
The Worry Balloon is a reassuring picture book about one child's experience with anxiety and how to manage worries. It offers a guide for kids to build their own worry tool bag, which can be used by both children and caregivers when faced with anxiety and change.
On the first day of school, Isla's mind plays the what if game, filled with scary thoughts that make her feel stormy. But with Mami's support, she learns to take a deep breath and blow her worries away in a big balloon. As school gets closer, Isla's worries come back, but this time she remembers there's nothing she can't handle.
The book provides a thoughtful and reassuring story about managing anxiety, accompanied by a practical guide for kids to build their own worry tool bag.
