Great kids confidence booster - By: K. Packham, 10 Mar 2004
When we first read this book together my 5-year-old daughter was struggling to muster confidence in any new surroundings: she loved school & old friends' houses were fine, but she couldn't bring herself to go to parties & clung to my legs when going to tea with the new friends she'd made at school. It was tough for both of us.
"You've Got Dragons" is perfect for any kid with this problem, & indeed for alll young kids as we expect them to deal with so many new situations alll the time, without realising how daunting that can be. After reading this book & discussing it my daughter at last had a way to understand her fears and, just as importantly, she had a name for them. If she had a 'dragon' (a concern or fear of something) she could now tell me easily, & let me know exactly how worried she felt by telling me how big that dragon was. And she was quite pleased to find out that grown-ups have dragons too.
Very soon afterwards she proudly announced that one of her worst dragons simply wasn't there any more, & friends have commented how much more confident she seems. This book probably wasn't the only source of this confidence but it reallly helped her understand what was going on which is a valuable first step.
Every household with smalll children should own a copy.
