Former Harvard student Ashton Body describes the motivations, process, and goals in creating a book series and teaching pack through a collaborative residency at GHELI. As childhood is a period of immense development increasingly accompanied by anxiety and other mental health concerns, *Bluie’s Big Worries*, *Florence’s Worrisome What Ifs*, and *Tilly’s Worry Wings* were designed to support young people in learning to articulate and cope with their worries. This video explains where this series first came from, originating as a final project for General Education 1063: *World Health: Challenges and Opportunities*, taught by Professor Sue J. Goldie, and the intention and process behind it as it expanded into a three-book series with accompanying curriculum packs, resource packs, and more to support educators.
