'Jimmy blinked away tears. What if I get it wrong like last time? Glob hovered over him, like an angry rain cloud blocking out the sun. Jimmy looked down and shook his head.

'"Go away, Glob," Jimmy thought.

'Did you know that everyone feels anxious or scared from time to time? It is a normal human emotion. Like when you almost fall or when you see a snake. It’s your body’s natural ‘fight, flight or freeze’ response.

'Go Away Glob encourages children to process and overcome feelings of anxiety, worry and self-doubt, to get back to enjoying the activities that they love.'

'Sophie stood Bear at the top of the castle.

'“You’re so brave, Bear!”

'When Sophie returned from dinner, Bear was not where she had left him.

'“Bear, where are you?” Sophie called.

'Go on an adventure with Sophie as she attempts to find her best friend, Bear. Sophie has to be brave, just like Bear, but the Shadow Monster is lurking in the dark. This gentle book encourages children to face their fears and to have courage, even if they are frightened or nervous.'
