This catalog of children's anxieties also includes ways to overcome them: "Sometimes I'm afraid of the dark. / I'm not scared if I have a night-light... / Sometimes I'm scared on my first day of school. / I'm not scared when I make new friends." Parr's trademark brightly colored and childlike illustrations, along with the straightforward text, provide a comfortable platform for discussing fears.
