BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3)- ESSENTIAL
APPEALS TO: SEVERAL
This book wants to be read, but then it worries that you won't like it. Or, what if you use it as a coloring book, or what it gets lost? The book realizes that everyone worries, and maybe instead of worrying about everything that could go wrong, it could try thinking of what could go right.
Like The Shy Book, the Worried Book teaches an important lesson of resilience. It normalizes being worried and offers realistic advice for what to do when worries start to get out of control. Cute illustrations with minimal colors support a text that flows well.
The background characters are illustrated with various ethnicities and abilities.
