A great book by Andrea Beaty that tackles the subject of children with anxiety and how it can take over their thoughts, actions, and lives and the people that help them overcome it. The book shows a young girl who gets overwhelmed by the "What If's" and how her teacher helps her overcome them and look at them from a different perspective.
I love all the books done by Andrea Beaty. Iggy peck, Architect, Rosie Revere, Engineer, and all the rest are great at showing children that they are all different and can overcome anything to be whatever they want to be. Another aspect that I absolutely love is the use of dyslexia-friendly font, which helps enable all readers to have easy access to the text and the message.

Do you remember your teachers? Are you still in touch with any of them? My personal 2nd grade teacher, Mrs Sandler, recently posted on FB some of her teacher teams' photos and scads of her former students have jumped in to laud these individuals who formed and shaped us. Each of us. One at a time. Teachers, you make a difference. And the impact goes farther than you can ever know.

This book was so cute! I loved the supportive teacher (Ms. Kerns) who helps turn Lila into a supportive teacher in the future.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher for my honest opinion.
Lila Greer is full of fear. Just as she is starting to become less afraid, her big family moves to a new place, filled with new unknowns and old fears. Everything changes though when she meets a very special teacher. As usual, I loved Beaty’s new Questioneers book and character, Lila. The illustrations are whimsical as always. The sing song text is fun and easy to follow and read. The big takeaway though is that this book is an ode to teachers. Full of love and kindness, not only does Lila find comfort in her new teacher, she is inspired to become one herself. A really lovely book for any family but especially those struggling with anxiety or new schools. And of course, this would a be wonderful book for Teacher Appreciation Week or just a way to say thank you to a teacher you love.

A story about anxiety, friendship and the power of a good teacher. A good read for any young child.
