4 ⭐This book is a metaphor for depression in kids. It‘s the big blue elephant sitting on the chest. This book isn‘t about teaching the child to “get better” but more of, it happens, and it can be lived with, and treated. This book is more about saying “it‘s okay” then “let‘s fix you”. I like that, and I think for the kids that need it, they will like this book.
