From actor Eva Mendes comes her debut picture book “Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries,” the story of a little girl facing the endless scary worries that come just before bedtime.
Every night begins with the same refrain: "MAMI! THERE'S A MONSTER UNDER MY BED!"
Desi has so many scary thoughts! Is her brain a monster?!
Of course it's not a real monster, and Mami assures Desi of this. Sometimes we just have scary worries running through our minds. And like anything in life, you just need to work to make things better.
With gentle guidance from Mami, Desi realizes she's the boss of her thoughts. Together they try different approaches to clear their minds of these never-ending worries.
While Desi may still have scary thoughts from time to time, she realizes that they can tackle anything!
