Zara's Big Messy Bedtime

Meet Zara, a clever, responsible, and sometimes anxious seven-year-old girl who lives with her mother (Mama) and four-year-old little brother (Sam). Like a lot of kids her age, Zara sometimes struggles with managing her emotions when confronted with stressful situations. So what is Zara dealing with this time? Written by a mother-of-five and celebrated meditation guide, the second instalment in the "Big Messy" book series, Zara's Big Messy Bedtime, focuses on the fears and apprehension children might feel when faced with big changes (and even small, everyday transitions). And just like in Zara's Big Messy Day, young readers will learn to accept help and become more empowered in dealing with everyday stress.

The "Big Messy" books teach little ones and their grownups how to manage their big messy emotions in safe, effective ways. In each instalment of the series, when main character seven-year-old Zara finds herself struggling, she receives a unique tool (a simple breathing exercise, poem, affirmation, etc.) from a trusted adult. Both Zara and the reader are left with a valuable resource to use on their own again and again.
