Abstract
Anxiety is a subjective sense of worry, apprehension, and/or fear. It is considered to be the number one health problem in America. Although quite common, anxiety disorders in children are often misdiagnosed and overlooked. Everyone feels fear, worry and apprehension from time to time, but when these feelings prevent a person from doing what he/she wants and/or needs to do, anxiety becomes a disability. This fun and humorous book addresses the problem of anxiety in a way that relates to children of all ages. It offers creative strategies for parents and teachers to use that can lessen the severity of anxiety. The goal of the book is to give children the tools needed to feel more in control of their anxiety. For those worries that are not in anyone's control (i.e. the weather,) a worry hat is introduced. A fun read for Wilmas of all ages!

Abstract
L'adolescence et la puberté sont des caps qui peuvent se révéler difficiles, voire très douloureux à aborder. L'auteure, Pauline Aubry, après une période de rébellion pure et dure, a elle-même été victime de crises d'angoisse aiguës nécessitant l'hospitalisation. Aujourd'hui, elle va mieux et a décidé de « replonger » dans cette période critique en organisant un stage BD à l'attention de jeunes recevant des soins de longue durée dans un département de pédopsychiatrie. Elle en a tiré Les Mutants, un peuple d'incompris, un documentaire qui fut pré-publié dans l'excellente revue XXI.
L'album suit les cas d'Annabelle, Adrien, Pierre, Alice, Mathieu et quelques autres. Tous ont en commun un énorme mal de vivre et n'arrivent pas à trouver leur place : plus enfants, ils ne sont pas encore tout à fait des adultes. Ce spleen traditionnel est partagé, à un niveau ou un autre, par tout un chacun, mais dans ces cas présents, s'avère insupportable et nécessite un suivi personnalisé. Aubry illustre avec application et précision ces diagnostics. Elle présente également, avec ce qu'il faut d'autodérision, sa propre expérience et introduit les grands courants théoriques à ce sujet. L'ensemble est agréable à parcourir, car le ton général reste très léger et même drôle (l'univers médical est rempli d'anecdotes d'un humour noir aux vertus souvent cathartiques), malgré la gravité de son propos.

Abstract
Like all dogs, Presley the Pug loves to play, run, and snuggle up under his warm blanket. But sometimes, Presley gets gets so excited that his feelings take over.
Sometimes it's anger, sometimes stress, sometimes worry. He doesn't know how to calm down! What can Presley do when he feels like this? Luckily Presley's canine friends are nearby with some wise words and they share some of the tricks that have worked for them!
This therapeutic activity book was developed by expert child psychologist Dr Karen Treisman. It features a colourful therapeutic story designed to help start conversations about coping with big feelings and how to find calm. It explains how Presley (and the reader!) is able to create a 'mind retreat' - an imaginary safe space where he can relax.
The activity book is also packed with creative activities and photocopiable worksheets to help children to explore the ideas raised in the story, including regulating and coping tools like sensory boxes, relaxation exercises and easy yoga poses. It also features advice and practical strategies for parents, carers and professionals supporting children aged 5-10.
Notes
Intended for children ages 5-10.
