2013 Gelett Burgess Children's Book Award: Mind, Body and Spirit

"A sensitive and reassuring story intended for children who have experienced trauma...What an OUTSTANDING resource."--Books That Heal Kids

"This book is a fabulous tool for parents, guidance counselors and therapists to read with a child when they may suspect a trauma ... The book also helps children know they aren't alone and that they can find ways to heal. Maria Bogade's illustrations are warm, and comforting, and beautifully show the emotion of the children."--ChildrensBooksHeal.com

"With Healing Days, the American Psychological Association has published an illustrated storybook that aims to help guide young victims through their emotional or physical trauma. The book tells the tale of a child who has had an unspecified "bad thing" happen. Through the story, author and psychologist Susan Farber Straus emphasizes that the victim is not to blame and introduces concepts that can help children understand that there is hope for a happy future."--The Washington Post
