Wemberly worried about spilling her juice, about shrinking in the bathtub, even about snakes in the radiator. She worried morning, noon, and night. "Worry, worry, worry," her family said. "Too much worry." And Wemberly worried about one thing most of all: her first day of school. But when she meets a fellow worrywart in her class, Wemberly realizes that school is too much fun to waste time worrying!
"Young worrywarts (and their parents) will see themselves in Wemberly, and be relieved that she, too, worries about playground equipment ('Too rusty. Too loose. Too high.'), sure-to-be-inhabited cracks in the wall, whether she will be the only butterfly in the Halloween parade, and, of course, whether school will be dreadful in every way....[And once] Wemberly plays with her new friend, she still worries, but no more than usual. ('And sometimes even less.')" -- Karin Snelson, Amazon.com Reviews
