Visitors for Edward

Reach for this book when your child starts making mountains out of molehills or seems anxious about an upcoming change, such as a new visitor or a family transition. It is a perfect choice for children who possess highly active imaginations that occasionally lead them toward unnecessary worry or overthinking. The story follows young Edward as he overhears snippets of his parents' conversation and constructs wild, elaborate fantasies about the mysterious visitors who are coming to stay. Through Edward's humorous and slightly spooky daydreams, the book explores how our internal fears can paint a much more dramatic picture than reality. It provides a gentle, lighthearted way to discuss the difference between what we imagine and what is actually happening. This early chapter book is developmentally ideal for children aged 5 to 8, helping them normalize their anxieties while laughing at the absurdity of Edward's monstrous expectations.
