Thank you for choosing the Digital Book Bundle.

Listen as you read and enjoy the beautifully illustrated digital edition of The Panic Monster Isn't a Monster, with large, easy-to-read text, narrated by me, Karen Bell.

This is the first book in my Stories for Life's Big Feelings collection, introducing Mia and her fluffy friend, Boo.

As a counsellor and teacher, I've spent many years helping children, young people and adults understand their feelings. Over the years, I've learned that children have to cope with life's big feelings long before they know what those feelings mean. As parents and caregivers, we can't always be there to help in those moments.

That's why I created KBC Creations and the characters Mia and Boo.

Together, they help children understand worries, wobbly legs, fast-beating hearts and whirly tummies with kindness, compassion and a little bit of magic.

Boo may seem scary at first, but he isn't a monster at all. He loves Mia very much. He's just trying a little too hard to keep her safe.

I hope these stories help you talk about feelings, to build confidence and remind every child that they can still be safe even when alone because wherever they go, Boo comes too.

Enjoy!

Karen Bell
