Main description:

This beautifully illustrated set contains a storybook and accompanying workbook, designed to be used with children and families working to re-build family relationships. Healthy and supportive family relationships are essential to mental health, and as referrals to Child and Adolescent Mental Health services continue to rise, growing research demonstrates the benefit of involving families in the treatment of children and young people facing emotional and mental health difficulties.
