 Rating:  - Not bad read for young kidsI bought this for my very negative 10 yr old son an myself to read. It was very basic but informative. Maybe for a bit younger than 10 yrs though. It has some little writing/drawing activities based on what you're learning in each chapter. I think I was expecting more content. It was a very quick read for him. I'll have him go through it again as a reminder/refresh as it is definitely necessary but I think I had hoped for more. Rating:  - Great cognitive therapy based bookJust 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). It gives some great concepts that plant seeds in a child's mind about what is going on when they are negative - even if they can't immediately put them to use. This is a wonderful series - we have ... Read More Rating: - Excellent Series - Very Easy to Use and UnderstandThis "What to Do" series was very useful to me as a parent. It explains complex psychological ideas at a child's level without condescending to them and then attempts to help them learn how deal with those strong emotions. I purchased this book and What to Do When You Worry Too Much: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety (What to Do Guides for Kids) after my 5-year old was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. It has helped her and her then 8-year old brother work through the many adjustments ... Read More Rating: - A great book for helping kids tackle negative thoughtsI 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. Rating: - Highly recommended for parents and therapists alikeI 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!
