Upside Down - Rashid, Sabah

. .

Résumé :
One day your world turns upside down! You feel confused, alone. What was here, is now there, and nothing makes sense anymore. What do you do? Make the most of it, of course! Upside Down is a story of perseverance through a time of great disruption. In the face of change, rising anxiety can be crippling. Drawing on the healing power of nature, our innate curiosity, and positive self talk, Upside Down positively navigates through a disaster, leading us to keep an open mind, embracing that which we cannot change. Written in the first person, Upside Down entices the reader with elements of fantasy, distracting from the trauma and pain that can come with unexpected change. Magical images of nature propel us into a sci-fi experience, wrapping us in a hug of possibilities- a nurturing gift of protection and calm until we realize...we are going to be alright....
