Before her first sleepover, Willow's worries gather like a cloud until naming each one helps her make a practical plan.
This warm Compass Crew picture book gives children a story-based way to explore worry and coping plans. Instead of labeling feelings as good or bad, the story helps young readers notice signals, protect safety, communicate clearly, and choose a practical next step.
Children ages 4-8 can use the story to:
- identify emotional and body clues;
- practice the four-step plan in a calm moment;
- ask for help, space, connection, or repair;
- respect their own and other people's boundaries;
- discuss the topic with a trusted grown-up.
