My 8 year old daugther suddenly began to have fears when I would drop her off at an activity. She cried and didn't want to go and would worry endlessly that I would not pick her up from her lesson. Her new behavior came on suddenly and was odd because she had previously never had trouble with going to an activity. At first, I must be honest and say that I didn't take her crying seriously...I just thought it was an attention getting behavior or really laziness about her lessons or activity. Once I began to identify her troubles as "worry" or "fear" I spoke to a good friend who is a psychologist and therapist. She recommended this workbook. This workbook worked wonders for my daugther and I. I read through it and then worked through it with my daugther. My daugther was able to identify with what the author was saying and it really reassured her that it was normal to worry. The workbook helped her identify and name her fears and we used the therapy to create tools for dealing with her worry. The workbook also pushed me as a parent to not "feed the worry." We made it through almost the entire book when she suddently began to not worry near as much. Although we are done with the workbook, we still use some of the tools we learned. I HIGHLY recommend this book...hey...it's cheaper than therapy and it worked!

I just received three of the books in this series. The font is nice and large and the readings and activities look simple but fantastic. I'm writing to let everyone know that on the books it says "Ages 6-12" but Amazon gives them a reading level of 9-12. They would be perfect to read even to a 5 year old.
Amazing! June 15, 2010

We just received this book today. My 6 yr old daughter and I started reading it and doing the workbook pages and couldn't put it down. We both LOVE it. She worries about everything resulting in headaches and stomachaches every day. The way this book is written is genius. She relates to it so well. Nothing is worded over her head. This is the 5th book I have bought on the subject and definitely the best, most helpful. If you have a worried child buy this book!
Excellant, Love it! June 12, 2010

This book is perfect! I read it as soon as we recieved it and I loved it, then when my 7yr. old was reading it he was saying, "Mom can we underline this part, and Mom Mom yup that's what happens." He Really could relate to the way this is written. The author put's fears and worries into perspective, AND gives great techniques with examples and explanations for him to deal with is worries. Only had it two days and it's the best thing I think i've bought in a long time!
