I got this book so my 11 year old and I could read it together. Reading together helped my son open up to me about his feelings about school and the difference between worrying, thinking, and being anxious about things. I was surprised at some of his feelings and what he feels anxious about. This book prompted alot of questions and conversations with him about stress and anxiety and how he can use ways to calm his body and mind.

The book is divided up between 4 sections: Celebrate God's Goodness, Ask God for Help, Look on the Bright Side, and Think about Good things.

I loved all the practical ideas, graphics, scriptures and comments throughout this book. Easy to read for "young readers" like middle school level.

My son and I really enjoyed reading this together. I highly recommend!!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

With graphics that appeal to young readers and down to earth common sense advice for dealing with anxiety, this book is a perfect gift for a middle school or young teen child. Each chapter also includes challenges that kids may face dealing with social media as well as questions at the end to help them apply what they have learned. Highly recommend this book!

This was a relevant and much needed read for young readers today. I think it's important for parents to go through this with their kids as well so that they can have some tough conversations if needed, but I think this book is a great start to help kids who may be dealing with anxiety get a better understanding of it physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It made a lot of helpful points and gave solid tips in countering not only every day anxieties, but the types that may come with a more serious condition. I liked that the book made a distinction between anxiety and worry, but in one section it also used the two as more synonyms which I didn't like because it made that distinction more blurred and confusing. Another thing is that I'm torn as to what age range I would suggest this for. I think some of the examples were for an older age range than the reading level. Although for younger readers it might be helpful to see that older kids deal with it too so they don't feel so alone. I think it's important for parents to take an active role in reading this so they can help their kids as well, but I think this is a solid, helpful read that tackles a tough, yet relevant topic of today.
