The Adventures of Naya and Gumbo Priya K Tahim

Naya is always up for anything but her dog, Gumbo, is nervous when they go on adventures. He turns shy and gets butterflies in his tummy. Because Naya cares about her friend, she wants to set Gumbo free from his worry. Maybe if she makes a plan, Gumbo won't be so anxious.



Naya comes up with a couple things that help push the worries away. She and Gumbo repeat special words that make Gumbo feel calm and confident, until he forgets about his worry altogether.



Everyone gets nervous sometimes. Come along with Naya and Gumbo on their journey to learn how to cope with real life difficult situations.
