I Don't Want to Think About Squirrels!:

Helping your child when a thought just won’t go away


What if your child couldn’t stop thinking about something, even when they really, really wanted to?

In this tender and relatable story, a fox finds himself haunted by repetitive thoughts. They pop up all of the time, making him anxious, frustrated, and tired, until he takes things into his own hands…or paws.

I Don’t Want to Think About Squirrels is a fun-to-read story that gives children and parents a way to talk about the thoughts that get stuck and feel impossible to shake. Written by a psychiatrist and former Harvard professor, but without using heavy terms or clinical language, this story gently reflects what it’s like to live inside a worried or overactive mind, and what to do about it.

Because sometimes, the harder you try not to think about something, the more you do.
