ce-affirming book that simply and elegantly describes, demonstrates, and promotes healthy emotional and social coping strategies for children of all ages. The book is richly and sensitively illustrated by Paula Everett, in a way that uniquely holds emotional awareness, whimsy, and depth of life and human understanding. We created this book alongside NAMI Westside Los Angeles to address the need for quality materials for mental health of young children in a way that is accessible, pluralistic and substantive.
