If your young child worries a lot, they’re not alone! Anxiety is the second most common mental health problem in kids. From being alone to making friends at a new school, many situations can cause anxiety.

Picture books about anxiety, mindfulness and overcoming fear give kids words to describe their feelings, reassure them anxiety is normal, and offer ways to feel better. When read together with a school-age child, the books below can start an important conversation about anxiety.

Don’t forget to check the cloudLibrary app for e-books and audiobooks about mental health.
