Homemade Books to Help Kids Cope shows parents how to create personalized books for and with their children. They can be written and designed
to fit any situation. Whether the issue is relatively straightforward, such as moving to a new home, or highly complex, such as a death in the family,
the techniques described are flexible enough to handle them. And you don't need much to get started. Simple everyday items found in the house, a little
time, and some creativity will go a long way in making communication more than just a good idea.

"In creating a book about a difficult experience, the child is able to develop mastery and control by putting words to affectively charged situations,
one of the first steps in changing behavior…easy to understand language and pragmatic ideas will make this book a tremendously useful resource."
