Review:
When young readers open this handy guide, they will see colorful pictures set in a graphic book-style setup. Bindu, who is twelve years old, will share his problem with depression and how it makes him feel. He has problems with loud noises and can concentrate by spending time doing other things that do not involve television or social media. He states that keeping a regular routine helps him push through his depression.
Parents, teachers, and caregivers can use this as a gentle tool to discuss depression. The back pages have key terms, an explanation of what depression is, and other resources to help find symptoms and medications.
