Description
Stuck in your worries? Bright ideas are everywhere!
Lexi is all about rules and schedules, so when the first day of school brings unwelcome surprises (like a giant hairball on her favorite new dress), she starts to get anxious. Before her confidence shrinks to zero and her worries spin out of control, a friendly bright spot appears and shines its light on everyday tools and strategies for overcoming anxiety. Thanks to the glowing personality and positive vibes of her adorable new friend, nothing can stop Lexi from facing the day like the champion she truly is.
With beautiful illustrations and a glint of humor, school-aged children will love seeing themselves in this tale of triumph over adversity. The Bright Spot is both a teaching tool and a heartwarming story of pushing through uncomfortable moments, managing anxiety, and becoming your own best guide.
