This book forms part of an anxiety management resource, made up of the Wishes and Worries book (for classroom use) and this book, Maia and the Worry Bug (for families). It was visioned and created by Julie Burgess-Manning and Sarina Dickson in response to the needs they saw in their own and other young children after the Christchurch earthquakes.
