I have never before written a review but in this case I just had too. This book has been the saving of me. I had a very anxious 10 year old boy and this book was recommended by a physcologist. Oh my God I can't believe the change in the child since we read this book together. Even to apply this book to yourself if you are an anxious person is a great help. I would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone who has dealings with anxious children. I have passed it on to a friend and she too has had great success with it. Excellent.
Excellent book! February 23, 2010

I have never done a review in my life before, but having bought this book to help with my daughter's general anxiety problem, I felt I just had to write one. The book is EXCELLENT and explains everything in a clear and simple (and amusing) way so that children can understand about why their worries are taking control and how to then get control over their worries. My daughter is 12 and so the book was easy for her to read, but she still benefitted from having everything explained in a simple child-friendly way. The book explains what worries are, how they get started, how they make you feel, how they sometimes "grow" out of control", and how to then make the worries go away and get in control yourself. I would highly recommend this book for any child that worries a lot, either over a specific worry(or worries) or just general unspecified worries. It would be good for any school age child, because even if the child couldn't read very well, you could read it to them and the language is so 'everyday' that they would be able to understand.
Please give this a go if you have an anxious child February 8, 2010

We bought this for our son who is 8yrs old and we have been so pleased with the results. He had anxieties that were starting to get out of hand; as many parents will know it starts with one little anxiety and then this grows and suddenly there seems to be so many things that create anxiety.
I myself was a bit worried about buying this for him and 'Naming' and using the 'A' word. I think I had avoided letting him know that he had 'anxieties' and was skirting round the issues, but we did offer lots of reassurance hoping it would go away. I didn't realise that 'reassurance' was actually making it worse! Parents you have to read this to realise how innocently we make the problem worse. This book has been as good for me and his Dad, as it has been for our son.
When I told my son I had ordered this book he was so relieved (I felt like crying). It has been a great help to him and he has contained his anxious feelings and has some great skills to draw on.
I'v read some of these reviews and parents say their children have lapsed back into anxiety and I can only give our experience. At first we had sudden and great results, and then my son's confidence faltered and the anxieties fought back. At this stage it's really important to hold your nerve and stay confident and the book covers this issue too.
A great book and we are so glad we found it as we have all benefited! Definitely worth a try
