Description
Book 2 in the ESSA High Series!
Jazzy has always had Bean.
Through every hard day, every meltdown, every moment that the world felt too loud, her Emotional Support Stuffed Animal has been right there by her side. So when something happens to Bean, it feels like the ground drops out from under her.
Her friends rally around her the way only ESSA High friends can. But at home it's harder. Her parents are busy, her big brother gets all the attention, and no matter how she tries, Jazzy can't make her mum understand why a stuffed dog means so much.
With her twelfth birthday coming up, she doesn't feel much like celebrating. And as the feelings pile up with nowhere to go, Jazzy's anxiety starts to get the better of her.
Can she find a way to be understood, before it all becomes too much?
Jazzy's story is for every kid who has ever felt like the people at home just don't get it.
"I love my parents. They try to understand me and how I am 'different' from my brother. But they don't fully understand how bad my anxiety is. I was only diagnosed as being autistic last year, along with ADHD and anxiety. I struggled a lot in school and found it hard to make friends. Thankfully, things are easier at ESSA High! I just wish my home life could improve, too."
