Three starred reviews called Small Things "monumental" (Booklist),
"superb" (School Library Journal) and "intense" (Foreword Reviews).
In this short, wordless graphic picture book, a young boy feels
alone with his anxiety. He isn't fitting in well at school. His
grades are slipping. He's even lashing out at those who love him.
Talented Australian artist Mel Tregonning created Small Things in
the final year of her life. In her emotionally rich illustrations,
the boy's worries manifest as tiny beings that crowd around him
constantly, overwhelming him and even gnawing away at his very
self. The striking imagery is all the more powerful when,
overcoming his isolation at last, the boy discovers that the tiny
demons of worry surround everyone, even those who seem to have it
all together. This short but hard-hitting wordless graphic picture
book gets to the heart of childhood anxiety and opens the way for
dialogue about acceptance, vulnerability, and the universal
experience of worry.
