Absolutely Wonderful 6 Stars

Bipolar disorder in children can manifest itself in many ways. This book helps children to understand what is happening in a non-clinical way. Having children with this illness, I have found this to be a valuable resource to let them know that they are not alone in what they are feeling. I have found that it helps open a line of communication between my wife and I and our girls. They are no longer embarrassed by the difficulties they face, because they understand that they are not the only ones to have this health condition. Also, it helps them to express their experiences to me in their own words.

Love it

I bought this book last year when my 8 year old was diagnosed with Bipolar. I was hoping it would help me explain to him what in the world was causing him the termoil his body was given him on the inside.
To my suprise it not only helped him understand, it helped me as well. He keeps it by his bed side (still to this day) and reads it either to himself or to me, when he is having and off day.

I am very thankfull I got this book.

This is an excellent book!

This is excellent to read with children suffering from bipolar disorder because the story is really captivating. I recommend this book!

glad this book exists!

I actually got this book from the National Alliance for Mental Illness (something like that?) before it was published in color. At that point, it was just stapled together-- but it was (and still is) one of the only books like this accessible for kids. Its literary content isn't phenomenal-- it'll probably never win awards for story-- but it's important just because of the topic it covers...
