A funny and adorable picture book about two friends going on an adventure and about meeting anxiety with resilience, an open mind and extra toilet paper.
Warm and Fuzzy are best friends.
Warm wants to go on an adventure, but Fuzzy isn't sure. What if it's scary? What if it's really cold or super hot? What if there are no bathrooms, or worse: no toilet paper!
Warm says they have everything they need, but Fuzzy is worried. Should they bring snacks? A sensible change of clothes? Toilet paper?
Warm knows where to go, but Fuzzy has questions. Have they been there before? Will there be people there? Should they bring gifts? Or toilet paper??
This reassuring story explores themes of resilience, patience, bravery and anxiety in a gently humorous and familiar way. It will remind worriers of all ages that no matter how big or small the adventure, they have it in themselves to meet it. Even if it means bringing their own toilet paper.
