All About Anxiety

I didn’t know about anxiety before I read the book All About Anxiety. The chapters start by telling you what this is and the different types you can have. The book explains what is happening in your body when you feel anxious. Then lots of things that can make a person anxious are talked about and how you can deal with these problems. Another chapter is about how anxiety affects you in different parts of your life (with friends, school, family, etc.). There is more written about how your body and brain are connected, which shows why we usually don’t feel well when we’re nervous or worried. The last chapter is about ways of getting better—or coping skills, for when you aren’t feeling well, and how you should talk to a counselor if you don’t think you can handle it on your own.

This book has a lot of information that can be useful for anyone dealing with anxiety. There is a lot of information for someone my age, but older kids or even adults can use this information to make themselves or someone else feel better. The pictures are fun to look at and help tie the whole book together.
