The Nervous Knight

A Story about Overcoming Worries and Anxiety Anthony Lloyd Jones

Suzy Rowland This interactive workbook for young teens who avoid school (for any number of reasons) can be used individually, as a direct communication tool for young people and their families, or as a companion guide to use with a therapist.

A gently humorous, illustrated picture book for ages 5+ telling the story of a nervous knight’s anxiety and how they learn to overcome it.

The book uses fun activities and real-life stories to help young people 10 to 14 understand the reasons attending school is difficult for them. It then helps to create an action plan for the future, offers techniques to help improve self-worth and mental health, and finally looks at alternative options if full-time school is out of the question.
