This thoughtful and fun activity book for children is inspired by the hysterical and hugely popular Big Activity Book for Anxious People. Written for kids or basically anyone who sometimes feels overwhelmed, angry, scared, nervous, or just plain icky—which is everyone. Really!

In this awesome, non-anxiety-inducing book, you'll learn about where anxious feelings come from (evolution) and strategies, activities, and suggestions for how to handle them. For example, go on a scavenger hunt for comforting things around your house, or color in the rainbow of emotions! 
 
Activities include:  
  • How to Calm Down When You're Freaking Out! (It's easier than it sounds.)
  • Word Search: Stuff Literally Everybody Does (Even if you think you're the only one.)
  • Unscramble the Easy Fixes for Everyday Problems! (Sometimes the answer is right in front of you!)
  • Design Your Own Emoji That Perfectly Expresses How You’re Feeling Right Now
  • Draw Faces On Underwater Creatures, Who Are Feeling Lots of Things (They're in their deep-sea feels.)
  •  
    Humorous, helpful, and—most of all—FUN, The Everybody Gets Anxious Activity Book is a must-have addition to your bookshelf…but don’t be surprised if your parents end up enjoying it just as much as you do.
    “This interactive workbook, geared toward creative kids who are nervous or overwhelmed, encourages readers to learn new strategies for self-soothing and build self-awareness through drawing and writing. An engaging resource that will help kids navigate anxiety with imagination.” —Kirkus Reviews
