Endorsement

“When I was a child, I was afraid of many things; Sarah’s book would have encouraged me greatly. The wisdom and advice found in Anna’s story, poignantly written in first person, is so helpful and comforting to both anxious children and their parents. We are constantly led to God and His Word, the only and best place to take our worries and fears.”
