- Book Synopsis
- And that's when it started . . . the inside-out squeezing, pulsing, whirly feeling in Penelope's belly. Meet Penelope Pickleberry, first-grader extraordinaire. Penelope can do lots of things, like pack her own snack and tie her shoelaces in under thirty seconds. But Penelope has one huge problem-Nelly, the negative voice in her head that tells her about bad things that might happen. At the final game of the soccer season, Nelly's I-just-can't message is getting louder. Luckily, Penelope also has Penny, the positive, confidence-boosting voice inside her that tells her to be brave and persevere. Will Nelly win the battle? Or will Penny's words of encouragement prove more powerful? This fun and relatable picture book helps kids manage childhood anxiety by learning to quiet their negative self-talk and listen to their own Penny, the inner voice that fills them with the courage to conquer everyday obstacles. Includes "A Guide for Shushing Your Nelly"- practical tips to help children overcome anxious thoughts.
