The Worry Garden: Planting Seeds of Calm helps children understand fear and anxiety through a gentle, imaginative metaphor that makes big feelings feel manageable.
When Luna becomes afraid to try new foods, her wise grandmother introduces her to a magical idea: the mind is like a garden. Thoughts are seeds, and when worryworms begin to grow, love, courage, and calming thoughts can help them fade away. Together, they learn how to plant seeds of bravery, nurture confidence, and grow resilience-one kind thought at a time.
Written by pediatrician Dr. Lum Frundi, who specializes in childhood food anxiety, and beautifully illustrated by Dori Durbin, this picture book offers practical emotional-regulation tools for young children.
Perfect for ages 4-8, parents, teachers, therapists, and counselors, The Worry Garden encourages mindfulness, connection, and early coping skills. A soothing, heartwarming addition to home, classroom, and counseling libraries, it reminds readers that every child can grow courage-with a little care and imagination.
