Everybody Worries is Jon Burgerman’s brand new picture book designed to support children who may be feeling worried about Coronavirus and in particular the everyday changes to their lifestyle that it has brought about.
With colourful characters and rhyming text, this original picture book from the author of Everybody Has a Body is designed to reassure young children that their worries are valid and also includes practical ways to help them to process and articulate their emotions
Author Jon Burgerman commented, “I decided to write a book about worry and stress and how normal it is and how we can try and mitigate it. I think we might not acknowledge that small children worry as much as they do. Without a means of expressing their anxieties, the stress can manifest and have adverse effects.
It’s important to talk openly about what is going on and that the feelings we’re experiencing are being felt by a lot of people, and that by sharing and caring for each other we can try and make it a little better.”
The book is offered free of charge and can be read on screen via the Oxford Owl website.
