Caleb's Worry Balloon - Big Worries and Anxiety

By Charlene Pinnock

Sometimes worries feel small, and sometimes they grow very big.

For Caleb, worries can feel like a balloon filling up inside his chest-making his heartbeat fast, and his thoughts spin. Even when everything around him seems normal, the feeling can still be there.

With the help of a caring adult, Caleb begins to learn that worries and anxiety are feelings many people experience. Through breathing, patience, and understanding, he discovers that worries do not have to control him.

Caleb's Worry Balloon is part of the Fearfully and Wonderfully Made series, a collection of stories created to help children understand differences, emotions, and challenges with kindness and empathy.
