Description: My Pet Monster- A book about Worry by Doctor Harmony Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Sals pet monster, Worry makes her fret by scaring her with the worst case scenario. Find out how Sal learns to live with Worry peacefully in this fun, rhyming educational book. Can you find Worry, hiding on each page? Kids, try out the fun activities in the back of the book to learn more about dealing with worry. Adults will get great tips too! Publisher Description When adults are not comfortable talking about and facing uncomfortable feelings, such as anxiety, it is then difficult for their children to learn how to deal with these feelings constructively. "Bottled" emotions increase the risk of physical and emotional health problems. Some people turn to drugs and alcohol, comfort-eating, gambling or domestic violence. It also fractures relationships and families. Vast amounts of research suggest that promoting resilience (such as constructive use of our uncomfortable feelings) reduces the risk of children later developing behavioural problems, being bullied or bullying others, having substance abuse, mental illness, suicide and school dropout. Resilience can also promote academic performance and can even improve treatment outcomes in adults with anxiety and depression. Treating emotional and social problems when they have already developed is more difficult and costly than preventing it. We need to be instilling our children with skills early in life to prevent problems from happening. The message is clear: Everyone will be confronted with life challenges and stress, no matter what age. Uncomfortable feelings are also normal. Once we accept this and can identify our feelings, we then have choices about how to deal with them constructively. This empowers children and families, reduces helplessness and brings hope. Resilience is a lifetime priceless gift we can teach our children with endless benefits. All Dr Harmonys books: -Have "find the character" on each illustrated page; -Rhyme (research suggests rhyming books lead to advanced readers); -Have a fun activities section for children to emphasise the messages of each book; -Have an adults page provides tips to adults to help children to work through each feeling in real-life situations; -Are easy for children to relate to. TIP: Get your children to draw their worried monsters and give them personalised names! Their monsters can then be referred in daily life whenever they feel angry. This reminds them about the strategies discussed in the book. The more frequently the concepts are used, eventually it is easier for children to independently problem-solve life challenges. REVIEW by KIRKUS REVIEWS: "A girl discovers that worry can be a good thing--as long as you dont let it control you...Harmony introduces a rare concept for a childrens book: that Brave and Worry arent enemies, but a team: "Worry tries to keep me safe from harm, / But Brave will tell me when to truly listen to the alarm."...the concepts here will be very familiar to young readers, and learning a coping mechanism to address ones fears is valuable. Worry hides on every page of this book, even after Brave shows up, and his tentacles will be a delight for young readers to find. They also work as a metaphor: the tentacles never grab Sal in a frightening way, but the idea that worries can wrap themselves tightly around a person will be clear. Activities at the end of the book encourage children to draw their own version of the Worry monster, and a page for parents offers tips on how to comfort a child overtaken by worry...This volume... will likely be useful for school counselors who want to recommend titles to youngsters struggling with anxiety."
