That Doesn't Worry Me Anymore

Let's talk about worry - and how to shine a light on it

When the narrator was younger, a monster in the bedroom made bedtime a battle: one more drink of water, one more book, anything to stay awake a little longer.

With a torch, a night light, and a promise that they could always tell Mum and Dad what was worrying them, the monster stopped being scary. But worries have a way of changing shape as we grow, and this story follows the same child meeting new ones, and finding, each time, that talking about them helps.

A warm, practical picture book for helping children name their worries out loud, and a reminder that grown-ups are always ready to listen.
