Did you know that life is like an obstacle course? It's exciting and
fun, but full of tricky spots to get through. If you're a kid who feels
so frustrated by those tricky spots that it's hard to enjoy the good
things in life, this book is for you.
What to Do When You Grumble Too Much guides children and their parents
through the cognitive-behavioral techniques used to treat negative
thinking. Lively metaphors and illustrations help kids see life's
hurdles in a new way, while drawing and writing activities help them
master skills to get over those hurdles. And step-by-step instructions
point the way toward becoming happier, more positive kids. This
interactive self-help book is the complete resource for educating,
motivating, and empowering children to work toward change.
Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers by psychologist and author
Dawn Huebner, PhD.
From the Note to Parents and Caregivers:
Children who tend toward the negative are actually often happy, as long
as everything is going well. And therein lies the catch, because in real
life, there are glitches. One of the rides at the amusement park is out
of commission, you forget to pick up the blueberry yogurt, a school
friend chooses to sit with someone else. And that's when the grumbling
(and worse) begins. In the life of a child whose thinking quickly turns
negative, a small mishap can shatter an afternoon.
This book is part of the Magination Press What-to-Do Guides for Kids(R)
series and includes an "Introduction to Parents and Caregivers."
