Corbett Shwom: Thank you for taking an interest in one of my books. As someone who has battled worry and anxiety for much of my life, I never imagined these experiences would end up in written form. That changed when I became a parent. As my daughters grew and began to share their feelings, I noticed how worry was starting to impact them, and I knew I had to act. One evening in July, I sat down and wrote the poem ‘Worry Thoughts,’ which helped them understand that their anxious thoughts were just that—thoughts, nothing more. It quickly became a favorite tool in managing their anxiety, especially at bedtime. Seeing how it benefited them, I decided to turn Worry Thoughts into a storybook, hoping other children might find it just as helpful. This is when I realized my true calling. I also reconnected with my younger self, which inspired the creation of Little C. And so, the Little C Books were born. Together, let’s help empower the next generation to flourish!
