Pierre's Worry Jar

Pierre's Worry Jar is a touching and relatable story that helps children navigate feelings of anxiety in a healthy way. Pierre is a bright, curious boy, but sometimes his worries feel too big to handle. From school tests to making new friends, his mind fills with "what-ifs" that make him feel overwhelmed. He doesn't know what to do with all these thoughts—until his mom introduces him to a simple yet powerful idea: a worry jar. With each worry he writes down and places in the jar, Pierre begins to feel a little lighter and braver. He learns that sharing his thoughts, instead of keeping them bottled up inside, helps him feel more in control. Through patience, love, and a creative coping strategy, Pierre discovers that even the biggest worries don't have to stay big forever. This beautifully written and engaging story is perfect for parents, caregivers, social emotional supporters and educators looking for a gentle way to introduce children to emotional regulation and mindfulness. Pierre's Worry Jar encourages young readers to express their feelings, seek support when needed, and embrace the idea that worries don't have to define them. Whether a child struggles with anxiety or simply needs reassurance during challenging moments, this book serves as a comforting and empowering resource.
