Reviews From Our Readers..What People Are Saying.......
These books are great! As a mental health professional I can attest that some of the materials out there for kids are DARK. Not so here. It's funny, light but finds a way to circle in all of the issues kids are dealing with: remote learning, social distancing, sleep hygiene, appropriate screen use, etc. It also reminds us that when our emotions get bigger than what we can handle, it's TOTALLY ok to seek help.
