ANXI: The Guardian of Anxiety

ANXI: the Guardian of Anxiety by Dr. Jessica Djabrayan Hannigan and John Hannigan is a colorfully illustrated, easy-to-read guide for young children to put into words those “funky” feelings we all get—nervousness and anxiety.  Geared for kids 4 to 8 years old (but useful for all ages), ANXI “talks” to readers learning how to express their own feelings, then provides strategies to determine if these worries are real, imagined, or overdramatized. ANXI: the Guardian of Anxiety is a simplistic yet practical bedtime or story time read.
