• Great cognitive therapy based book
  Just from the intro. written to the parents, I was impressed. It made me feel more at ease about some of my son's issues. I am a former school counselor and I thought the layout of the book was great and it kept my 6 year old's attention (we would do a chapter a night each night before nights out).

• A great book for helping kids tackle negative thoughts
  I wasn't so sure about this book at first, the chapters at the beginning were a bit slow but WOW, by chapter 3 the concepts really start to hit home for the kids I work with in therapy. I appreciate another CBT resource that I will use again and again to help my clients.

• Highly recommended for parents and therapists alike
  I am a child clinical psychologist who regularly recommends books to parents to help provide reassuring information and practical tips to assist their children between sessions. My 12 year-old also loved this book and found a lot of good suggestions. Not only is the book easy to read and understand, it provides "homework" activities which allow a personalized approach and encourage active involvement by the child in overcoming a natural tendency toward negativity. I highly recommend this book!
