I was a kiddo with undiagnosed anxiety. Being anxious was a very confusing experience because no one put a name to the feeling. I almost want to cry that other anxious kids may have access to this beautiful book, put a name to the feeling they are experiencing, and get the help they need. I loved the pictures in the book and the contrast of the feeling of darkness, fear, and being small with the colorful flowers of being able to live with joy, love, and help from an adult. I highly recommend this book for all parents/teachers especially the ones that may have an anxious kiddo at home. They deserve to live beyond their anxiety and find hope and beauty in the world. So happy that is lovely book exists!
