這世界上有好多好多令人焦慮的事：認識新朋友、聽到陌生的聲響，以及遇到那些可怕的海鷗大盜──牠們總是企圖偷走你的薯條點心！
 
　　這部超級可愛的圖文作品，帶你從小狗潔西的視角，看牠面對各種令狗(和人)焦躁不安的情境，如何在人類和狗類朋友的幫助下，鼓起勇氣踏出第一步、第二步，和之後的好多步，正視恐懼的來源，進而發現生活中各種美好事物。
 
　　啟發自作者收養的小狗潔西的故事，並由插畫家Anna Pirolli繪製插圖，由多個可愛又啟發人心的短篇構成，故事淺顯卻蘊含深刻意涵，無論是大小讀者，都能在其中看見自己恐懼的形影，並找到面對焦慮的勇氣！(文/博客來編譯)

There’s so much to be anxious about in this world: meeting new people, unfamiliar sounds, and worst of all, the seagulls that try to steal your chips. Worried Whippet counters that anxiety with humor and heartfelt inspiration.

Worried Whippet is a whimsically illustrated book that inspires you to take a cue from one anxious little dog, to muster up your courage, and step out into the world with hope. Follow along as one fearful little whippet named Jess, made popular on TikTok and Instagram, journeys out of her cozy bed to join her friends and conquer all the things that scare her most.

In these pages, you fill find:

• Simple, yet profound, short stories on bravery, featuring Jess and her friends
• Encouraging messages for adults coping with anxiety (that kids will also understand)
• Inspiration for overcoming irrational fear and becoming a little braver every day
• Musings on friendship, love, and happiness
• Illustrations featuring English beaches and countrysides that will translate worry into whimsy for adults and kids

This is a fantastic gift to give for graduations, birthdays, holidays, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, National Dog Day, National Brave Day, pet adoptions, as a gift of encouragement, or for anyone who loves dogs.

Keep Calm and Whippet On.
