Reader's Favorite Book Review:
Parents and children will be able to relate to Bree, especially those dealing with gifted children. Many children go through anxiety issues and stress related problems, and the author handles the topic with ease and makes it comforting to readers. It is a good book for parents, teachers, and educators to read out to children, especially during the start of a school year as it will help calm a lot of nerves.
From Amazon:
For gifted children who struggle with anxiety and with fitting in Bree and The Nametag Worries by Christine Sromek Laforet is an ideal book to ease children through these authentic school transitions. Told through the eyes of Bree, Laforet gracefully and humorously handles the issues that arise when over excitability and worries get in the way of Bree making friends, and through Bree’s belly breathing technique, Laforet offers proven stress coping strategies to calm nerves.
As a Gifted Intervention Specialist and parent of a gifted child, I have met many children like Bree, and I found Bree and the Nametag Worries to be heartwarming and believable. It is the perfect start of school year book for the young gifted child.
