Sometimes I'm Shy by Poppy O'neill

Does your child appear nervous and isolated in social settings? Do they tuck themselves behind you as a stranger, or even a family friend, approaches? Perhaps they find it difficult to approach other children or make friends? Do they seem to avoid engaging in hobbies and activities? These could all be signs that your child is struggling with shyness.

This practical guide combines proven cognitive-behavioral therapy methods used by child psychologists in schools with simple activities to help your child overcome shyness. It's perfect for children ages 8 to 12 because a lot happens in these years that can impact a child's emotional well-being, not just now but for years to come.

Includes 40 fun activities, such as:
  • I am unique, just like my fingerprint
  • What does shyness look like for me?
  • Imagine your bravest self
  • Mix-and-match power words
  • Draw your big voice
  • Stand tall
  • Talk about your feelings
  • My brave house
  • Flip your thoughts
  • and more

Your child will be guided, with the help of Jem--a friendly and supportive character they can identify with--through fun and engaging activities interspersed with useful tips, inspirational statements, and practical information for parents.
