American Psychological Association A Feel Better Book for Little Sports
Book SynopsisSports can be a BIG deal for a LITTLE kid! The acclaimed Feel Better Book series now offers an upbeat rhyming story thattackles the fun and the not-so-fun parts of sports: winning, losing, being a good sport, and even resilience. This is a helpful book for little ones who are just entering the world of competitive play, so that they can get the most out of their activities. Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers with more information about ways to help kids get the most out of sports.Trade ReviewBrochmann and Bowen’s rhyming, singsong stanzas first introduce the physical benefits of sports before moving to emotional aspects like empathy, sportsmanship, and losing with grace… The illustrations effectively accompany the text, with gymnasts tumbling across one double-page spread explaining how muscles grow from running and jumping and young soccer players in teams observing post-game rituals to illustrate sportsmanship. Readers will see the wide range of emotions players go through when they compete—frustration, joy, anger, and sadness—and learn they are all part of the game… A comprehensive and successful child’s introduction to competitive sports. * Kirkus Reviews *This installment in the Feel Better Books for Little Kids series offers a corrective to today’s hypercompetitive sports environment, aimed at both kids and adults. The message is inclusive: people of all nations, ages, races, and genders love and can benefit from sports… No matter what, the authors emphasize, it’s important to have fun and be a good sport… Timely and helpful. * Booklist *

American Psychological Association Why A Story for Kids Who Have Lost a Parent to
Book SynopsisA picture book geared to help parents and counselors communicate with young children about a parent?s suicide. Oliver?s daddy loved him?a whole bunch, forever and for always. One day Oliver?s daddy died by suicide. Why? Oliver?s mommy hugs him tight, and she tells him why. And she reassures Oliver that his daddy loved him?and that will never change. In developmentally appropriate language and evocative illustrations, this picture book helps open communication about why a parent completes suicide. A reader?s note offers more information about supporting children who have lost a parent to suicide.Trade ReviewThis groundbreaking picture book provides some possible answers to the question of why someone, especially a parent, might choose death over life.Losing a loved one is never easy, but when that loved one dies by suicide, most youngsters will have many questions but be provided with few answers. Often, so much stigma and secrecy surround this type of loss that children are further traumatized when adults fail to discuss what happened. Oliver is confused about why his father is no longer living. His mother tries to comfort him, reassuring Oliver that his father loved him and that neither of them are to blame for his death. Oliver’s mother explains that his father was “overwhelmed by a deep dark sadness” and chose to end his life “to get away from the sad, scary, and dark feelings,” language that effectively depicts depression and demystifies the mental health challenges that led to his death. The illustrations contain several luminous double-page spreads that convey the deep sense of loss experienced by those left behind as well as what it might feel like to be “stuck in deep dark sadness.” The contrast between those dark pages and the growing lightness surrounding Oliver and his mother as they process their loss is striking. Oliver is biracial; his father is pictured with light skin and curly brown hair and his mother with darker skin and hair.A helpful how-to guide for difficult but necessary conversations. (reader’s note, for more information, reference) (Picture book. 6-9) -- Kirkus Reviews
