Worry Box
The lizard Juju put his worries into boxes and they grow as big as a mountain. The tiger Ho helps Juju solve the problem of his worry boxes. Thanks to Ho's warmheartedness, the boxes disappear one by one, and their friendship becomes stronger. This picture book expresses the abstract emotion of "worry" with the concrete object of a "box," depicting the process of overcoming worries in a humorous and delightful way. The book helps children to take a step back from their worries and look at them with ease of mind rather than to struggle and be consumed by worries.
