The Worry Tree

Just because something’s not magic doesn’t mean it can’t be magical …

Just because something’s not magic doesn’t mean it can’t be magical … Juliet’s a worrywart, and no wonder! Her little sister, Oaf, follows her around singing ‘The Irritating Song’ all day long. Her parents are always arguing about Dad’s junk. There’s Nana, who’s so tired of craft lessons that she starts barbecuing things in the middle of the night. And then there are her friends, Lindsay and Gemma, who start a competition to see which of them is Juliet’s best friend. Juliet can’t fit in any more worries!

But then she makes a remarkable discovery. Behind the wallpaper in her new bedroom, Juliet uncovers a very old painting of a tree with animals in its branches. Nana remembers it well. It’s the Worry Tree, and with the help of a duck called Delia and the other Worry Tree animals, Juliet just might be able to solve some of life’s big problems.
