How To Tame My Anxiety Monster is about a child with a monster that no one else can see but him. He doesn't like when his monster comes around because it makes his stomach hurt, or makes it hard to concentrate or sleep. It makes him feel lots of other upsetting and uncomfortable things as well. He decided to talk to his parents about it and his mom told him that she had one too. He learned that his monster's name was Anxiety. Throughout the book the child talks about the ways that he can tame his anxiety monster. He can play sports, do yoga, art, or talk to a therapist to help calm him among other things. He then discovers the good ways that his anxiety monster can help him; during a test, a report, or riding a big scary-fun rollercoaster! He may not be able to make his monster go away, but he can learn to tame him! In the back of this book are some parent helps that can be great conversation starters for children that deal with anxiety.

Worry Monster loves "helping" Archie worry, especially the night before he starts his new school. Archie feels so anxious that his head hurts, his tummy flutters and his heart pounds. He soon realizes the only way to feel better is to make Worry Monster go away. He does his belly breaths and faces facts to challenge his inner fears. Children have the potential to engage and empathise with Archie and Worry Monster both through the text and the subtle gestures and fleeting emotions captured in the beautiful illustrations. Encouraging children to name their anxiety is an evidence-based, current strategy used by psychologists to assist children in separating themselves from their anxiety. Go Away, Worry Monster! gives children this and other useful strategies to cope, showing them how to make their own Worry Monsters leave during stressful periods of their lives, from starting or changing schools, to a change in family dynamics. Created by an author and illustrator passionate about helping children to cope with common emotional difficulties, this is an invaluable, life-changing resource for young children and their parents in guiding emotional development.
