Blogging From A to Z Challenge – Anxiety

It’s the first official day of the Blogging From A to Z Challenge and I’ve got a few areas of diversity I want to focus on. Anxiety affects everyone differently and also can manifest with other mental illnesses, stress, or other factors. This means everyone’s story with anxiety is different, but that doesn’t mean kids and teens shouldn’t be able to see themselves in the books they read. Here’s a quick peek at just a few books with an anxiety theme.
