My name is Dr. Erin Peterson and I am the proud author of When the Going Gets Tough! It has been such an honor to write this children’s book and I am so excited to now share it with the world soon! Not only does this book include a diverse group of characters that children can relate to and learn from, but additional components beyond the actual story that compliment the idea and overall goal. These components include discussion prompts for adults, providing designated places to stop and have important conversations with children. This book is appropriate for any individual wanting to practice reset strategies in order to feel better, along with adults who would like to provide support.
Below are some examples of resources included in each book!
