What the critics say
"On any given day, around 30 percent of my patients have anxiety related symptoms. The simplicity and completeness of the explanations and treatment of anxiety given in this book is remarkable. Defining the cause, treating the core symptoms, and most importantly bringing it to a child's level accompanied by wonderful illustrations, is an incredible feat. I will definitely use this book in my practice." (Zev Ash, M.D. F.A.A.P., pediatrician)
"Anxiety is, of course, a complicated neuro-physiological process but it has been reduced to understandable terms in this brilliantly illustrated book for children. I would go even further and say that there are adults who could benefit from the straightforward approach." (Rick Ritter, MSW, author of Coping with Physical Loss and Disability)

Anxiety Made Graspable
This book works. The author used sensible examples that young children (and adults) can relate to. It also includes resources for the grownups to further help their kids. The narrator's pauses seem consistent with how one would read a picture book outloud, taking time to turn a page, however in this Audible version I cannot see any illustrations! :)
