Story Book | 4+ - Simone Under the Brambles

Simone has a two-wheeled bicycle, red shoes with stars, and a really soft lion cuddly toy. She also has brambles: branches full of thorns that grow in her stomach and paralyze her when she's worried or afraid. Simone would like to be able to tame her brambles, but how?

An album to approach anxiety with gentleness and kindness.

Argument

• An album that addresses anxiety, a reality that affects an increasing number of children.

• The metaphor of thorns is used to depict moments when Simone suffers from her anxiety and feels overwhelmed.

• The naive and playful illustrations bring a touch of lightness to Simone's story.
