What Do You Do with a Problem?
Written by Kobi Yamada & Illustrated by Mae Besom
We are living through troubling times. Our stress and worry affect the children in our lives as well. Using this book can help you open up a discussion with a group of children or with one child who is struggling.
This is a story for anyone, at any age, who has ever had a problem that they wished would go away. It's a story to inspire you to look closely at that problem and to find out why it's here. Because you might discover something amazing about your problem… and yourself.
What do you do with a problem, especially one that follows you around and doesn't seem to be going away? Do you worry about it? Ignore it? Do you run and hide from it?
This is the story of a persistent problem and the child who isn't so sure what to make of it. The longer the problem is avoided, the bigger it seems to get. But when the child finally musters up the courage to face it, the problem turns out to be something quite different than it appeared.
