raising readers Recommends: "Great Books - Great Topics"

This new resouce guide will feature books on a variety of issues such as adoption, loss, new baby, toilet training, and bedtime - all of which can be obtained at your local library or bookstore.

Children's books with a theme or message can help support children as they confront emotional challenges- both happy and sad- in their daily lives. Many children enjoy and engage more fully with stories that address challenging issues within the framework of the storyline. Not only do books such as this inform and comfort the child, but they provide models of ways to cope with the issues.

All of the books in this guide were carefully chosen, reviewed and recommended by the Medical Advisor to the raising readers program: Dr. Lisa Belisle, MD, MPH and the guide will be available both in print and on our website (in pdf format) by the end of November.
