The Huge Bag of Worries Board Book cover

Wherever Jenny goes, her worries follow her - in a big blue bag. They are with her all the time - at school, at home, when she is watching TV and even in the bathroom! Jenny decides they have to go, but who will help her get rid of them?


A funny and reassuring look at dealing with worries and anxiety, to be used as a spring board into important conversations with your child.

Interesting, funny, brilliant and fantastic. - Books for Keeps

The book prompted a lovely discussion and was a great way for [my son] to articulate his emotions. Fantastic book - road tested and heartedly recommended! - The Fostering Network

A compelling picture book. - Write Away

A good starting point to encourage children to discuss their anxieties and fears. It may also help children to realise that many children suffer with anxiety. - Little Parachutes

This is an excellent resource for those working with anxious children. The children love the story and the beautifully bright illustrations are sure to engage even the most reticent child. - Amazon reviewer
