All About Worries and Fears by Felicity Brooks

There can be a lot to worry about when you are little, from monsters under the bed to Monday’s maths test, but one person’s scary spider is another’s perfect pet, so how can we learn to stop everyday fears and worries from growing out of proportion or even overwhelming us? This book helps children understand why we have different fears and worries and the physical effects they can have on our bodies. It then offers all sorts of fun and helpful activities and strategies to help manage and even overcome them. Professional help is offered from Dr Angharad Rudkin, a clinical psychologist. There are also links to websites with helpful tips and advice for grown-ups too in Usborne Quicklinks.
