An ice breaker for talking with children
In addition to its artistic genius and amazing detail, the book delivers a wonderful message(s). Which message/messages depends upon the child you “read” it with. Their feelings, fears, concerns, hopes and dreams can be explored as they tell you what each page shows them. For children going through difficult times in their lives be it divorce, deaths, separations, failures, or disappointments this enables them to relate, in someway, what they might be feeling. That interaction allows us to better understand what they're going through, how they're handling it and what we can do to best help them. It is truly a great book and I have recommended it to so many of my patients and school educators.
