Review: Is a Worry Worrying You? by Ferida Wolff; Harriet

-

 



What if the worst happens? 
There is always a way to overcome worries. 

This short picture book with its charming illustrations about worrying and finding a solution to stop worrying is better than millions of complicated self-help books. It is so frank and true about worrying and anxiety that it makes an adult like myself feel wonderful by reading it. I am an autistic adult who is going through deadlines and critiques for my work by my supervisor. 

Of course, I am worried. Hence, this book is brilliant for everyone—adults and children alike. This wonderful book has given me a chance to focus on my actual visible worries and forget about the non-existing ones. 

It is an outstanding book to find a solution and a way to differentiate between the illusion of anxiety and the actual one, with a solution for both.

"Sweet Thames, run softly, till I end my song." - EDMUND SPENSER, Prothalamion The soul-searching journey starts with the inadequacy of knowledge and ends with erudition towards one's consciousness. The absence of knowledge is repulsive, so one investigates the pathway to engaging knowledge. The waking of the numbed souls is like a river of enlightenment to transform it all into soft pieces of wisdom, therefore, it is ultimately  Glacier Mellow. Hence, this blog is my personal journey within encountering my English Language university experience and my personal studies in the realm of writing, literature, Occult studies, linguistics, Demonology, Angelology, Theology, Anthropology, and the world of J. R. R. Tolkien. Here I will add my list of online courses and writings. Foremost, ultimately to achieve my M.A. in Gothic Literature. Update before the end of the decade, this entry on the 29th of December 2019 forms as; my M.A. in Literature is still an ongoing ...

Age Group:  From age 0 till 100 Publisher:   Published November 2nd 1998 by HarperCollins Children's Books  (first published 1937). Source:  Bought Rating:    5  /5 In a hole in the ground, there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.  Bilbo Baggins was a hobbit who wanted to be left alone in quiet comfort. But the wizard Gandalf came along with a band of homeless dwarves. Soon Bilbo was drawn into their quest, facing evil orcs, savage wolves, giant spiders, and worse unknown dangers. Finally, it was Bilbo-alone and unaided-who had to confront the great dragon Smaug, the terror of an entire countrysi...
