A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

From Sarah Rayner, author of the hit novel One Moment, One Morning and illustrator Jules Miller comes a delightful book designed to make the festive season more fun and less fraught.

The perfect gift for a loved one or treat for yourself, this is a Special Updated Edition of the bestselling Making Friends with Anxiety: A Calming Colouring Book. Readers can:

• Discover how to ‘make friends with anxiety’ and thereby manage stress • Learn why colouring, in particular, is so therapeutic • Find out about other creative activities that have a similar effect on the psyche, providing an array of solutions to help ease worry over the long term

There is also an extra section with advice on how to reduce stress over the holidays offset by nine exclusive Christmas-themed illustrations. You'll find magical gingerbread houses, plump partridges and animals snuggling by the fire and over two dozen non-Christmassy pictures too. Each illustration incorporates a mantra – a few simple words to help boost your mood.

The result is a book to treasure – a unique combination of words of wisdom and pictures filled with childlike joy that will encourage positivity long after the festivities finish and the colouring-in is done.

• The follow-up to 5* word-of-mouth success, Making Friends with Anxiety: A warm, supportive little book to help ease worry and panic • Pictures designed to cut out and keep that make great Christmas decorations - you can even string them with ribbon like bunting • Suitable for 12 years+

Although 'Making Friends with Anxiety: A calming colouring book' is the first book they produced together, Sarah Rayner and Jules Miller have known one another for many years. They met at an advertising agency in London in 1998, where they were assigned to work together as a copywriter/art director team. Luckily they got on like a house on fire, produced some successful ads, and became great friends. Over ten years ago first Jules then Sarah moved to Brighton and if you ever visit the city by the sea, you might just see them jogging together along the promenade. (They'll be the ones running very slowly, and talking very fast.)

'It was on one exceptionally chatty run along the prom that we came up with the idea for this book,' says Sarah. 'We noticed that whilst there were lots of colouring books out there, there weren't any, to speak of, with words too. Making Friends with Anxiety: A calming colouring book aims to help people learn how to reduce worry and stress whilst they colour the illustrations. It's a 2-in-1 book of stress management advice combined with hands-on creativity, and this is what makes it different from the other books out there.'
