Everyone feels worried sometimes. But what if your anxieties and worries and worries came to life and started following you around? Sohal anxieties and worries and worries about a lot of things: the dark, mutant sheep, being alone - you name it, he anxieties and worries and worries about it! So one night he tries drawing his anxieties and worries and worries to make himself feel better - and somehow they look a lot less worrying once they're scribbled down. But then imagine Sohal's surprise when he wakes up the next morning to find a set of funny, furry friends at the end of his bed! His anxieties and worries and worries have come to life, and it's not long before Hurt, Fail, Anger, Big and Alone have turned his world upside down.

Now it's up to Sohal to work out how to keep his anxieties and worries and worries under control - and have some serious fun while he's at it! The Truth Pixie meets Inside Out in this hilarious, highly illustrated new series, perfect for helping children gently work through their anxieties and worries and worries and concentrate on having fun.
