Editorial Reviews
Review
“A priceless lesson for any child--or adult--conveyed in a beautifully child-friendly manner . . . A valuable asset to the library of a child who experiences anxiety and a great book to get children talking about their feelings.” ―Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“Focuses on the socio-emotional health of children . . . providing a window for discussions about fear and anxiety.” ―Booklist
“Percival treats worry like a natural part of life, including the idea that sharing worries with others is a good way to ensure 'they never hung around for long.'” ―Publishers Weekly
“A captivating tale about happiness, being yourself, and the magic of learning to spread your wings and fly.” ―Foreword Reviews, starred review, on PERFECTLY NORMAN
“The message of acceptance . . . is presented in a child-appropriate and thoughtful manner.” ―Booklist on PERFECTLY NORMAN
“An ideal selection for storytimes.” ―School Library Journal on PERFECTLY NORMAN
“Percival's message is emphasized through the canny use of color as a storytelling mechanism: Norman's world is in greyscale . . . As the wings come out, Norman and everything he's near turns technicolor.” ―Publishers Weekly on PERFECTLY NORMAN
“The contrast of black-and-white illustrations with splashes of bright color complements the story's theme. . . . A heartwarming story about facing fears and acceptance.” ―Kirkus Reviews on PERFECTLY NORMAN

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for many scenarios
I have this book in my preschool classroom. I bought a second copy for my husband therapy office. Discusses that if you talk about your worries they seem smaller and not so big anymore. Good illustrations for kids too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful read
My 9 yr old dtr struggles with a lot of anxiety and separation. I bought this based on reviews. This is such a lovely well written story. Focuses on how Ruby’s worry follows her around and gets larger especially if she ignores it. (That’s the part my dtr really related to) and Ruby friends a friend with a worry as well. Once they talk about it it gets smaller. I’m really glad I got this book. We still talk about it especially at school drop off when that’s really difficult for her. Since we read it often and we talk about her anxieties, she’s slowly gotten better at separating. It’s a good read for any child with worries.
4.0 out of 5 stars What a great lesson everyone can agree on.
Such a great book and a good lesson for everyone.

Great for anxiety
Taught my child what to do when they felt worried. Now they can state they can talk to someone if they're feeling worried to feel better and shrink their worries.
