8 empowering children's books to add to your shelves

Being a parent of course has its difficulties, but so does being a kid. As adults, we sometimes forget the trials and tribulations that come with growing up. To raise awareness of these underlying issues, the American Psychological Association and Magination Press have joined forces to publish a series of children's books. Written by medical experts and illustrated with colourful images, these publications address themes such as accepting ourselves, overcoming stress and building strong and healthy familial bonds – good for children and adults alike.
