Worrying is natural and everyone will get there eventually. Growing up, anxiety and worrying was something I didn't even think about or really understand. I had some difficult times growing up and always stayed positive, and then one day it hit me like a brick wall. I didn't know how to cope, and a book like this would have helped me understand what was going on inside my brain. I'm glad there are more resources available now to help kids with these issues.

The book itself is a great resource and tool on top of just being a good book. I kinda had a good chuckle reading this book, because the annoying and strange dynamic of worry kinda feels like the weird monster that is representing it in this book. It was on the nose for how I would picture worry, so I'm quite impressed.

This book makes worrying seem so simple. It not only explains what worrying is but also different ways to cope with it. It explains it in an easy to understand way that I think young readers would be able to identify with. It gives a great analogy for worry and helps explain it in ways that just make sense. I would recommend using this book for middle graders, or grades two and up.

The art style was also unique. It felt crayon-y and kind of nostalgic. It was very intriguing and not a style I've seen a lot of.

Four out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Tanglewood for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )

In this wonderfully written and illustrated book the question of “Is A Worry Worrying You?” is addressed in a manner to engage children and address the problem. From explaining what a worry is and how it makes you feel the authors go on to explain how to deal with it. Some worries are big and some are small but this book encourages the child to think about the situation and to figure out a solution. I would urge anyone who has children or works with children to share this book with them. It just might help some of those worries go away. I received a copy of this book free to review. ( )

Delightful story about worries. Really! The text encourages the reader to work through (serious but silly) worries with simple solutions. We are reminded that "A worry isn't polite. It has no manners." The children in the story treat worry appropriately, ignoring it, replacing it, facing, and talking it through with someone. Illustrations are colorful, detailed and fun. ( )

Is Worry Worrying You? is a fun and educational book about worry and things that might cause stress in children. While it suggests some amusing, unrealistic scenarios, the suggestions for dealing with those problems are helpful. Throughout the book, authors Ferida Wolff and Harriet May Savitz gently propose solutions to worrisome situations and point out that anyone, including adults, can have worries. They interject practical advice into silly stories, such as "Most of the time, something you worry about never happens." The book ends with many ways to battle worries. My favorite is "Replace a worry with a happy thought. Let a worry thought remind you to smile." The very last words are encouragement that "You can do it!" The book's target is 4-7 year-olds, but I think it could be entertaining and helpful for children older than that range.
Illustrator Marie Letourneau has contributed some tremendously fun illustrations, personifying worry as a giant, ugly blob. Her illustrations are exaggerated and colorful. They are a beautiful addition to the book.
Thank you to NetGalley and Tanglewood Publishing for this ebook to review. ( )

I enjoyed the depiction of worries as monsters, and the dark tint and lines of the illustrations emphasized the darkening effect worries can have on one's attitude. The author offers some good solutions for kids to deal with their worries, which would make this a good read for kids who tend to be anxious and worried about everything.

Note: I received a digital copy of this book through NetGalley. ( )
