Annie Sparkle's Incredible Butterfly Day - Paperback

by Dan Hatch (Author), Linda Hill (Author), Linda Hill (Illustrator)

When the wobbly feelings start, Annie can't stop stomping, stamping and slamming doors.

Can her magical best friend help Annie get her sparkle back?

Annie Sparkle's Incredible Butterfly Day is a story to help young people make sense of the emotional effects of trauma, and to empower their responses to it.

Young people who have experienced trauma may not understand why they respond differently in some situations than other young people.

With this book, we hope not only to explain what these "wobbly feelings" are and where they come from, but to give young people some tools to help control their emotional world.

This book is underpinned by research into childhood trauma and techniques to aid recovery.

A guide for foster carers, guardians and parents is included alongside the book, to help you understand and put into use some of the techniques explored in Annie Sparkle.
