Any time I read a book by Josh and Christi Straub I know its going to be a great book with a great message, not only for kids, but adults too. And What Do I Do With Worry? does not disappoint. What Do I Do With Worry? acknowledges the worry that children have and gives practical, tangible ideas on how to handle their worry. This would be a great book to read in a Christian classroom setting, a counseling session, or a Family Devotional. Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for the opportunity to read this book! (This review is also on GoodReads.)

This is the sweetest book. Willow moves to a new neighborhood during the summer and is nervous. She meets a new neighborhood boy who invites her to a party and she is just worried! Her grandmother tells her what she does. She imagines a bird and tells it all of her worries. She thinks of the bird flying to God, who takes care of her worries. This short book is such a good reminder that God cares for you, even when you worry. I would recommend this book to any parent who has a child who worries.

I thought that this book was excellent!

There are a lot of young children out that there do worry and the ideas behind this book to give them a way to take it away were very good.

The book was easy to read and follow and even reading it as an adult I know I had a lot of similar worries when I was that age and wish I'd had a book like this then!

When my daughter is a little older if she has the same worries when she starts school I know what to do and will be getting a copy of the book to keep and read with her again.

It is 5 stars from me for this one, well written, a great approach, wonderful illustrations - very highly recommended!

Willow and her family are moving and she is worried. She keeps going through all the what-ifs. But her grandma comes and helps her understand she needs to give over her worries to God. Willow is able to give her worries to God and be brave. A great lesson for kids in how to deal with the what-ifs.
