Cheeky Worries cover

An illustrated picture book that helps to empower 4-8-year-olds in understanding and managing worries and intrusive thoughts

Finn becomes sad when his worries stop him from having fun. Thankfully, a wise Owl is on hand with some helpful advice, and he learns to overcome these feelings. This picture book explains anxiety to children ages 4+ and contains practical suggestions on how to conquer it.

Finn LOVES adventures and having fun!
But when he starts to have 'cheeky worries', a Wise Owl knows just what to do...

Cheeky worries are those sneaky thoughts that pop up when you're least expecting it. You might be getting ready for bed, playing with friends at the park or having fun on the bus when suddenly a scary thought pops into your head.
Through the character of Finn and a wise owl, this book equips children and adults with a common language to discuss their emotional worlds and worries. It gently introduces psychological principles and evidence-based techniques that help children ages 4-8 develop resilience and deal with anxiety.
