Beschreibung
A funny and wise guide and workbook for conquering fears, from the existential to the everyday, and defeating the monster those fears can become: anxiety

This is a book about fear. About how it works, how it takes hold over us, and how it dogs us from childhood (the monsters under the bed) to adulthood (careers, relationships, accidentally sending that risky text to the wrong person--all the things that make us want to bite our nails). But this is also a book about that monster our fear can warp into when it grows too powerful, a phenomenon we are all too familiar with and that more and more of us are struggling against: anxiety.

Author and illustrator Amalia Andrade had her own battle with anxiety, and not only did she make it out the other side, she learned sometimes it's the very thing that almost sinks you that can save you. Through the lessons, exercises, and often hilarious personal stories Amalia shares in these pages, together you will learn how to make those feelings your friends and turn your fears into superpowers.

A PENGUIN LIFE TITLE
Über den Autor

She's written for several magazines in both Colombia and the United States. She believes strongly in the power of keeping a diary.

Zusammenfassung
FANTASTIC AUTHOR: Amalia has a highly engaged social media following (275K Instagram + Twitter), is an Apple brand partner, speaks fluent English, and is incredibly outgoing, frequently holding standing-room-only events in Latin America.

TIMELY SUBJECT: As we see in pop culture and have learned through insights like those shared at the Penguin Random House Wellness Summit, mental health and anxiety in particular are surging subjects for millinnials and Gen Z readers.

INTERACTIVE WORKBOOK WITH A FUN AESTHETIC: The book's style of bold hand-lettering and quirky line drawings with interactive elements is fun and eye-catching, and reminiscent of hugely popular author-illustrators like Adam J. Kurtz (Things Are What You Make of Them) and Keri Smith (Wreck This Journal).

INTERNATIONAL HIT: Since its original publication in the author's native Colombia in 2017, the book has sold more than 100,000 copies in Spanish language markets around the world.
