"In I Only Eat Trout", Hunter Darden captures the essence of anxiety through the eyes of a child.  This book is a simple, profound and practical guide for children and families who struggle with the stress and anxiety of day-to-day life.  Whether one’s ‘worries’ are situational or long standing, sensible tools are needed to cope effectively. Hunter Darden brings creativity, wisdom and compassion to the increasingly common struggle of childhood anxiety in our culture.  I highly recommend this book as a staple in every home with young children."
