This book stole the format some Boys Town Press and it’s a book about anxiety. In this book Gretchen has a little accident when she throws up her pizza and the thought of eating pizza next week makes her anxious. This book gives her a way to deal with it through a fun little acronym, and then practice using that acronym. The book does what it supposed to do and the idea that they use a stomach bug with the school cafeteria set a bad taste in my mouth but the lesson in it is OK. I wish they’d found it some other way to do anxiety rather than around what they’re serving at lunch. The lesson in here is attainable and would be usable both in schools and libraries. I just overall not a fan of this book.
