"Children who have difficulty coping with change or who experience uncomfortably high levels of stress and anxiety often need help with understanding and managing their emotions. This creative book combines accessible theory with a wealth of games and activities designed to help children with these difficulties and build emotional awareness and resilience. ... This unique photocopiable activity book is primarily designed for use with individuals and groups of children aged 7-11, but the ideas can easily by adapted for both older and younger children, and children with learning difficulties." - BOOK JACKET
