Go Away, Worry Monster!

By Brooke Graham

Book Overview

Worry Monster loves & 'helping' Archie worry, especially the night
before he starts his new school. Archie feels so anxious that his head hurts,
his tummy flutters and his heart pounds. He soon realizes the only way to feel
better is to make Worry Monster go away. He does his belly breaths and faces
facts to challenge his inner fears. Children have the potential to engage and
empathise with Archie and Worry Monster both through the text and the subtle
gestures and fleeting emotions captured in the beautiful illustrations. Encouraging
children to name their anxiety is an evidence-based, current strategy used by
psychologists to assist children in separating themselves from their anxiety. Go Away, Worry Monster gives children this and other useful
strategies to cope, showing them how to make their own Worry Monsters leave during
stressful periods of their lives, from starting or changing schools, to a
change in family dynamics. Created by an author and illustrator passionate
about helping children to cope with common emotional difficulties, this is an
invaluable, life-changing resource for young children and their parents in
guiding emotional development.
