Kelley Barth

Ani is drowning in schoolwork and stressed about her looming presentation deadline. Dev is on edge about attending his first family gathering since his parents' divorce. Just when their worries seem too much to handle, a mysterious cat appears—along with a cryptic clue. These lead Ani and Dev on separate journeys to discover personalized coping strategies that help them manage their anxiety.
