This is just the thing to help my kid think through a lot of important stuff on her own terms. We also got the guide for caregivers, which has been really great at helping me be there for her without overpowering the conversation. I recommend reading through the caregiver guide before presenting the journal to your kid because it helps to frame it in a good way.
The book is for a girl that is having some self-image issues because of bullying. She is not a black girl but it doesn't matter because the universality of the message in the book makes it appropriate, no matter the race. Even thought the activities (affirmations) are powerful, I the love simplicity of the book
A fantastic resource!
I'm a recovering "pick me" girl who thought I'd done a lot of work decentering men. This book taught me that, while I've definitely made progress, there's always more work to be done. Thank you, Kiki, for this resource.
