The Huge Bag of Worries

This is a children’s paperback book for little people between the ages of about four and twelve. It was originally commissioned the NSPCC in Scotland who gave it to every schoolchild who was going to secondary school. The idea was to encourage children to confide in adults when they had a worry. It’s beautifully illustrated, even adults like it and it’s been made what’s called in the publishing industry a “big book” – in other words one that’s big enough to show to classes in schools. It’s about a little girl who finds she has a huge bag of worries which she can’t get rid of… to find how she conquers in, you’ll have to read it.
