My younger self feels so seen 😠I was also an anxious kid who around the age of 11 developed stomach issues. (The author and I even got the same diagnosis!) From quite literally the first page, I saw my younger self on the page in a way that I’ve never seen done before—the middle of the night stomach pain, the embarrassment, the confusion. I so wish I had this book at that age so that I could have known I wasn’t alone. I’m so glad it exists for all the kids growing up now who struggle with health/digestion issues, and for those who don’t to have a window into what that’s like.
