Don't Pop Your Cork on Mondays!: The Children's Anti-Stress Book

My son struggles with aniexty and stress. He is much better now due to books like this that help him put perspective on everyday life. Although he is feeling better we still enjoy reading this series of books, they make looking at and handling stress and stressful situations humurous and acceptable. It shows the children that it's okay to be stressed but here's how to handle it and here's what it's doing to you. I highly recommend the entire series.

Excellent book for children and families dealing with anger-management and strong emotions. It's a great book children can read on their own, have it read to them as well as an excellent book for families to read together. A must have book and must have series!

I am a counseling intern working with a head start type program that works with parents and preschoolers. I used this book to teach the children and parents about stress management! The book teaches children breathing techniques, guided imagery, and progressive muscle relaxation (all stress reducing activities that are used for adults). For preschoolers, I skipped over some of the big words, but it has great illustrations and comparisons! It takes a difficult to understand concept and makes it understandable and managable for children.

Dr. Moser gives kids an easy-to-understand look at stress and offers great coping skills in this delightfully illustrated book. I got this book for my children after our family moved to a new city and we were all showing signs of "Popping Our Corks". This book was GREAT! The kids (and mom and dad, too) are still using Dr. Moser's relaxation techniques/coping skills to deal with our ever stressful lives. It was such an enjoyable book, the kids didn't even realize they were learning valuable skills to use for a lifetime. I would recommend this book to anyone!

This is a great book for kids to read to help them understand about stress and some of the causes of it. It is well written and geared for children to understand. I liked that it not only discussed what can cause them (kids) stress, but also explains about the stresses parents face. It offers suggestions on how to deal with stress. We had our son read this book to us and would suggest that you too read it as a family. A good read for the whole family. Humorous illustrations.
