This captivating storybook helps young people identify and explore feelings of anxiety, fear and uncertainty. As the narrator anxiously pours out a plethora of ‘what if?’ thoughts – from ‘what if we don’t have food to eat?’ to ‘what if the lions lose their roar?’ these seemingly never-ending worries, eventually build into what readers may recognise as a panic attack. They discover that beneath the head full of worries lies fear, and learn that rather than focusing on getting answers to the anxious questions, they can recognise the feeling of fear as a felt sense in the body, and be with it while it moves.

Sensitively written and highly relatable to anyone who has experienced anxious thinking, What If all The Trees Blow Away?:

  • helps children recognise their anxious thoughts as fear;
  • guides children on how to take back control of their anxious thinking;
  • explores the connection between emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing;
  • aids in normalising the feelings of fear and worry;
  • encourages sharing and seeking support;
  • ends with a mindful reflection, to help children explore and be with their feelings.

This storybook is essential reading for teachers, parents, or anyone working with children, who wishes to enable open conversations, exploration and expression around fear and anxiety.
