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 ranging from realistic to fantastical, these seemingly never-ending worries eventually build into what some readers may recognise as a panic attack.
