Every child is afraid at one time or another in life. Our typical reaction to minimize a person's feelings of fear or doubt can contribute to their distress. Many parents and caregivers wonder how they can help their child become more resilient and less fearful. The story and techniques presented here will help you learn techniques and practice them with your children and those entrusted to your care. Ginger Befriends her Monster is part of a two-book set that follows Ginger and her mother as they navigate Ginger's inner world according to the model of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. Although it is a therapeutic model with extensive evidence-based research to support its methodology, it is also a way of interacting with one's own inner world and with people around us. Children (and the caregiver's child-like parts) will enjoy the heart-warming story and the lovely illustrations, while parents and caregivers will appreciate the tangible skills that are shown in the book and explained in the "Hint for Parents" section. After reading and implementing the tools shown in this book, you will want to read Ginger Heals Her Monster where she finds a more complete resolution of the fears the monster has.
