Suppose, just suppose, one hundred elephants come to tea and you discover you don't have any tea bags.

Uh, oh. What will you do with a herd of thirsty elephants?

Now that's a worry!

But you can get rid of that worry by offering the elephants lemonade instead.

Adults think of childhood as a carefree time, but the truth is that children worry, and worry a lot, especially in our highly pressurized era. This book addresses children's worries with humor and imagination, as hilarious scenarios teach kids the use of perspective and the art of creative problem-solving.
