Written specifically for children ages 4-8, this brightly illustrated book candidly tackles the confusion and fear children face when a parent enters treatment. With vibrant illustrations by Mike Motz and a parent guide page included, parents now have a helpful tool that will ease children's apprehension when someone they love must confront reality
Addiction is a devastating disease not only to the person who suffers from it, but also to family members. It's hard enough to explain to an adult how addiction can affect an individual-just imagine what a child must think when a parent suddenly goes from a loving and nurturing mother to a screaming stranger. This book is about Janey and how she learns about her mother's disease. Written in easy-to-understand language with brightly colored illustrations, Mommy's Gone to Treatment addresses some of the issues children face when a parent seeks help.
