The Big Worry Day

Illustrated by Chloe Dominique
Look inside
A girl and her dog find ways to deal with her anxiety in this beautiful debut picture book

A little girl is convinced that her dog worries, just like her. With a whole day ahead of them, she'll need to figure out how to soothe them both. She prepares snacks, first aid, and even a sword in case there are any monsters. But when nothing works to ease their worries, she’ll need to get creative.
 
Written by K.A. Reynolds, who includes helpful ways to ease anxiety, and beautifully illustrated Chloe Dominique, this sweet and necessary story is a warm hug for any child who’s ever felt anxious or nervous.
K. A. Reynolds is an autistic only child born and raised in Winnipeg Canada, currently residing in Maine. She began writing at eight years old, not long after her mother died. Words came to her then like friends holding lanterns up in the dark. And suddenly, the world grew a bit brighter, and Kristin didn’t feel so alone.

Chloe Dominique is a freelance illustrator and concept artist based in the UK, working across animation, video games and children's publishing. Originally from Yorkshire and now living in Norwich with a VFX wizard and their dog of mischief, Loki, you'll find her with a cup of tea in hand, illustrating her socks off in a plant-and-book-filled home studio.
