Told through soft, gorgeous color illustrations, Why Worry is a
gentle story of two friends swept into the unpredictable wilderness and
how, despite feeling anxiety and worries, they find peace and calmness
together.
Once upon a time there were two good friends, Cricket and
Grasshopper.
Cricket always worried. Grasshopper never did.
Cricket and Grasshopper go on a high-flying, wild adventure and
encounter a large crow, a hungry fish, powerful winds, and more. But
while Grasshopper is having the time of her life, Cricket can't help but
worry if they'll be safe, where they're going, and how they'll return
home. Though the two have differing perspectives, Grasshopper and
Cricket find support in each other through acceptance and patience.
Originally published in 1979, Why Worry? is a soothing tale that
teaches understanding and empathy of people who experience anxiety, and
how to support and alleviate those worries.
