Que l'enfant aie peur d'un monstre dans son placard, de s'éloigner, de sauter dans l'eau ou des autres enfants, son anxiété le limite dans sa vie et peut être particulièrement exaspérante pour toute la famille. Dans ce livre, vous comprendrez pourquoi les explications logiques et le réconfort échouent le plus souvent, pourquoi l'évitement n'est pas une bonne idée et pourquoi forcer n'aide pas. Lawrence Cohen, l'auteur de « Qui veut jouer avec moi ? » propose ici des stratégies originales, simples et efficaces pour aider votre enfant non seulement à dépasser son anxiété, mais aussi à retrouver confiance et solidité. Vous saurez : enseigner à votre enfant comment fonctionne le système de sécurité de son corps : l'alerte, l'alarme, l'évaluation et la fin d'alerte. L'aider à tolérer l'inconfort et traverser un moment effrayant, sans fuir ni serrer les dents. Trouver des façons rigolotes de relâcher les tensions. Rester vous-même calme lors d'une crise. Rendre à votre enfant la maîtrise de ses pensées, pour que les pensées anxieuses laissent la place à d'autres plus constructives. Mine de ressources et de finesse, ce livre propose des solutions et des techniques pour passer d'anxiété, inquiétude et peur à confiance, connexion et joie !

Abstract
Scaredy never sleeps -- sleep might mean bad dreams about dragons, ghosts, vampire bats and polka-dot monsters. Our wide-eyed hero has a plan: stay awake all night, every night. Between counting stars, playing cymbals and making scrapbooks, he does a good job of avoiding dreamland. With exhaustion taking its toll, Scaredy comes face-to-face with an alarming horoscope prediction: All his dreams are about to come true! He must prepare for the worst and his Bad Dream Action Plan includes a fire extinguisher to snuff out dragons and a fan to blast away ghosts. But when disaster strikes, will Scaredy survive this ordeal? Will he thank his lucky stars? Will he find sweet dreams? Scaredy Squirrel at Night tackles a fear everyone -- and especially the young -- can relate to. It's a bedtime story to make light of kids' fear of the dark and a fable for our sleep-deprived society.

When Natalie's little brother Evan Earl is born prematurely, he's earns the nickname Evan Early. No one can say for sure when Evan will come home from the hospital. To help her with this uncertainty, Natalie's father gives her a calendar to keep track of the days - each day that Natalie colors in is one day closer to the day Evan can come home. Natalie visits Evan in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and talks to the nurses about what they do, and her Mom explains how the tubes and machines are helping Evan to breathe and eat. As the days go by and become 'rainbow weeks' on Natalie's coloring calendar, she gets lonely and a little scared; her parents spend most of their time with Evan in the NICU. She finally gets upset by their neglect. Her Mom reassures her that they haven't forgotten about her. Natalie learns that, although her brother might always need special help and lots of attention, she can be a big help and teach him family traditions.

A story which addresses the complex problem of eating disorders in a language that children from ages 5-12 can understand. It is a beautifully illustrated book telling the story of two mice who use food in an effort to cope with the stress in their lives. "Mouse stress" involves an ever-present cat, mouse-traps, a dog and a rat who chase the small mice. The boy mouse, Billy Blue, overeats for comfort and solace. His sister, Sally Rose, under-eats in an attempt to reduce her size in order to be safe. While Billy is teased for being fat, his sister is admired for her tiny body. Their parents, though well intentioned, are distracted by work and compulsive cleaning. Their wise aunt teaches them to listen to their bodies, tune in to their feelings and get their needs met in more effective ways.

Abstract
Children learn boundaries and safety when using screens, and fun things to do when screens are off. As important as screens are in our lives, we all need to unplug, especially children. This reassuring picture book offers children and families a starting point for limiting screen time and making the most of the time you have with your screens and without.

With straightforward suggestions, children will learn valuable information about online safety, setting healthy screen-time boundaries, and the importance of screen-free time.
With her trademark mix of empathy and encouragement, author Elizabeth Verdick offers appealing and healthy alternatives to using screens, as well as ways to stay safe and happy when online. Illustrator Marieka Heinlen?s active and vibrant illustrations of young children interacting with their caregivers and families bring the activities and suggestions for screen-free fun to life. A section for adults at the end of the book includes information on the effects of too much screen time and suggestions for establishing screen-time boundaries
