How can we help a young child cope with traumatic experiences?
This gentle, interactive, and informative book offers therapeutic, cross-cultural guidance for children (ages 4-8) and their adult caregivers.
Created by a child trauma therapist, this book provides normalization of traumatic events, including displacement from one's home, physical/emotional abuse, natural disasters, neglect, and witnessing violence. Calming illustrations and simple, interactive narratives attempt to engage children without overstimulating their nervous systems.
Children will learn about upset emotions to better identify and verbalize their own emotions. The sweet forest animal characters model physical and emotional reactions to trauma. Wise Old Owl guides the animals toward adaptive coping strategies to calm their nervous system and develop more helpful beliefs about themselves.
The child's internal strength and sense of agency are encouraged as essential ways to cope with trauma.
Clinical guidance for adult caregivers is also provided to support a child's healing journey.
This therapeutic tool is a needed addition to the child therapy space, the classroom, and homes where children are coping with traumatic experiences.
