The current navigation of Covid-19 also highlighting the impact of unimaginable changes. Whilst we can never erase change from life, learning and maintaining evidence-based wellbeing skills will support children and their families to cope more effectively.

It is critical that children witness desired behaviour from the adults surrounding them, and have those behaviours positively reinforced. Tools like this book support parents with a road map. We can’t expect all adults to know what to do just because they are parents. As a clinical community, we need to be providing accessible evidence-based guidance.


Beautifully packaged, this enticing story for children is illustrated by New Zealand artist Charlotte Schryvers and is a must-have for any parent, grandparent or teacher wanting to help their child navigate change.
