The reviews are in. KIDS and PARENTS LOVE this book! Scaredies Away is written by a Nationally Certified School Psychologist and world renowned anxiety expert who speaks globally on anxiety. Why haven't you heard of this book? It's simple--because Scaredies Away is a self-published book and does not have the advertising budget that the big publishers have. The authors insisted on delivering Scaredies Away in a fun and entertaining way so that your kids would actually want to read the book thereby getting the help they need. The publishers would not publish this book as fiction/self-help book. They wanted another dry and boring self-help book. But as a previous teacher, therapist, and school psychologist this author and mother of two knew better. She knew kids learned better when they were entertained, when the content was put in simple terms and when the material was developmentally appropriate. The first week of launch Scaredies Away hit the #1 spot in its category on Amazon and has since received numerous five star reviews. Those dry how-to manuals are a dime a dozen. That's what is different about this book-the kids LOVE it. Scaredies Away is such a very special and uniquely crafted book. It has become many children's favorite bedtime book even when they are not anxious. While it was important for the authors to make sure your kids would be entertained -as parents too-they knew their primary goal was to help you help your child find comfort, hope and the freedom to just be a kid again. They know you just want your child to be OK again. They get it. They've been there too. This book was crafted with you and your child in mind- not the criteria of the big publishers.
