Luna & The Worry Catcher

Luna feels like her mind is overflowing with worries. They follow her everywhere. On the way to school, to the park, and even to bed at night. They make her shoulders feel heavy and her tummy feel tight. All the worries swirl in her mind, like a thick black fog.

Then one day, Luna discovers Whisper. He is a majestic and mysterious Fox who catches worries and keeps them safe inside beautiful jars. Thrilled to be free from her worries at last, Luna gives every single worry to the magical Fox. He makes sure the are sealed tight in the jars and cannot get out

As the next day unfolds, Luna realizes that life without any worries..... Things are no quite right. Without her worries, she:

• Walks across the street without looking.
• Fails a math test because she just didn't care enough to study.
• Becomes oblivious to her friends' feelings.

With Whisper's help, Luna looks through her jars and discovers a life-changing secret: not all worries are bad. While some worries are just dark mist that spins in circles, others hold some positivity that we need in life. The "good" worries can keep us safe, remind us to be kind, and motivate us to do well.
