Description

Bear Worries is a funny and comforting picture book from award-winning creator Natalia Shaloshvili, offering a gentle look at how big worries can grow and how they can shrink again with a little help from a friend.

Bear is happily munching his cookie when a troubling thought pops into his head: what if its the last cookie? When that worry comes true, Bear heads to the shops and his imagination runs away with him. He worries about missing the bus and it leaves without him. He worries about getting lost and he does. By the time he reaches the cookie queue, hes at the very back, and his biggest worry seems to come true when the final cookie goes to Duck!

But all is not lost. With warmth and kindness, Duck helps Bear see that even when worries feel overwhelming, things can still turn out better than expected. By sharing his cookie and reminding Bear that what ifs can lead to happy endings too, Duck shows that no worry is too big when faced together.

Balancing humour with reassurance, Bear Worries is ideal for storytime, classrooms or as a thoughtful gift. A gentle springboard for conversations about anxiety and friendship, its a comforting addition to any childs bookshelf.
