The Worry Monster: A Story About Childhood Anxiety
(Now with a Song — Scan the Code on the Back Cover!)

The Worry Monster is a heartwarming, empowering children’s book that helps young readers understand anxiety and learn gentle ways to face it. Perfect for ages 4–8, this beautifully illustrated story follows Joey, a little boy who loves to play and explore… but sometimes feels nervous when new situations pop up.

Whenever Joey starts to worry, the sneaky Worry Monster appears, whispering doubts and scary thoughts. But Joey isn’t alone. With help from Positron — his brave superhero doll with a golden cape — Joey learns that he has the power to send the Worry Monster away. As he tries new experiences like going to camp and starting school, Joey discovers that bravery isn’t about never feeling scared… it’s about facing your fears, one step at a time.
