Children's Storybooks on Abuse (Part 2)

Season 4- Episode 24

In this second installment of Lauren's series on books that help kids deal with hard topics, she's sharing 4 more books. In this episode, Lauren gives an overview of each book and her recommendations for adapting it to kids in different age groups. 

Most books on these topics are designed for kids ages 5-12, but they can be modified for younger kids. It can be helpful to introduce the topics early as long as they're introduced in a developmentally appropriate way. Lauren gives some great ideas for how to easily modify these for your younger kiddos.

Different books resonate with different people, kids, and situations so make sure to look these up online and check the reviews to see what other people are saying.
