Wemberly Worried
By mrsboz onI love this book!I have read this book many times.I never get tired of it.It is a book about a little girl that worries about everything.It goes on to tell about how she is going to start school and how that is her biggest worry ever.It explains how she meets a new friend that is like her and how she helps her relax.Kevin Henkes is the author.he is my favorite children's author.He always makes a point to discuss situations that are common to children so when you read the stories to the kids they feel like they can overcome it and they aren't the only ones.I have read this book several times to different school children at library time.Once when I was reading the book I looked over at the teacher and she had tears in her eyes.After class I talked to her about it and she said that it really hit home for her.She said that she still worries about everything and did as a child so the book was so moving for her.I ended up buying her the book.After all she will be a grandmother one day and we all, at times, have a little Wemberly in us!
I remember the book. Great story! Sounds like the teacher might have had some OCD issues. I used to have panic attacks, whenever I had to go to the bus stop. Good reivew!
i might have to check this author out, i prefer iris johanson but the idea you ppl read books over and over, is beyond me, i can not do it, i have started reading all of iris's books in order and have stopped because i came across a book by her i read along time ago, it sucks if only i could force my self to read this book again i can get back on track lol.
I have never heard of this book but it sounds like a good one, thanks for the information.
awww! I have never heard of this book! I'm gonna have to look for it !
I love Kevin Henkes and his books. I read this one the other day. SO cute. I love his book Chrysanthemum and have used it to teach kids a lesson. Thats the great thing about Kevin's books is that they usually deal with things kids actually experience.
