Frog’s Breathtaking Speech: How children (and frogs) can use the breath to deal with anxiety, anger and tension
Frog is very worried as he has an important speech to make at his school assembly. The speech is about breathing and he doesn’t know a thing about it! He asks his friends for help and they teach him all about the lion breath, the crocodile breath, the humming bee breath and the woodchopper breath. Can any of these breathing techniques calm his nerves before the big speech?
This charming illustrated picture book teaches children four breathing techniques in a fun and interactive way. The story successfully increases children’s awareness of their breath and shows how breathing can be used to deal with anger, anxiety and tension.
This book will be a great resource for all teachers and teaching assistants in mainstream and special needs schools, as well as parents looking for an engaging story to teach their children about coping with difficult emotions and stressful situations.

Coping with an anxious or depressed child by Dr Sam Cartwright-Hatton
This book has been written by Anxiety UK Patron and leading researcher on child anxiety, Dr Sam Cartwright-Hatton. It offers practical advice about managing your child’s anxiety and includes worksheets, tips on the use of praise or consequences and how you can engage the school in helping your child. It is a great first read for parents who are struggling to manage their child’s behaviour, and helps parents decide which treatment or therapist would provide the most help.
Clear, easy-to-understand information on better parenting. And not just for depressed and anxious children either: its advice is applicable for all parents. And I particularly like the agony aunt sections. Sam’s advice is already working wonders with my child. I wish it had been published years ago. A ‘must buy’.
