Helping Children with Fear cover

A guidebook to help children who:

  • worry a lot or exhibit signs of ongoing anxiety
  • experience the world as an unsafe place
  • suffer from phobias, obsessions or nightmares
  • are scared to tell someone that they are scared
  • know a terrible loneliness
  • feel insignificant in a world of adult giants
  • feel defeated by life or need help in being assertive
  • and feel so impotent that their only way to feel any potency is to be mute.

"A vital resource for all parents and child professionals" — Families Magazine

"Margot's books are digestible teaching aids for anyone working with children - a resource that would be beneficial in every school both for qualified and non-qualified staff." — Special Children
