What if my dog runs away? What if I forget my homework? What if the sun stops shining? What if my crayon breaks?
Cora is constantly worrying about everything. Because of this, the Whatifs love her. They sneak up to her and give her all kinds of doubts: big or small, silly or frightening, likely or impossible. As she prepares for an upcoming piano recital, the Whatifs cling on tighter and drag her down, making her anxious about messing up during the concert. Will she be able to change her worry-filled thoughts into hopeful ones?
This picture book will speak to any person, young or old, who has been plagued by the Whatifs when they're anxious! Author Emily Kilgore provides tips from cognitive behavioral therapy in the story, encouraging kids to turn their Whatifs around, and provides notes about her own experience with anxiety, too, help kids feel confident they can overcome their worries and thrive!
