Facing Mighty Fears about Throwing Up by Dawn Huebner, Liza Stevens
4.0
facing mighty fears about throwing up is an informative children's nonfiction book on the topic of emetophobia and the book i wish i had years ago
okay hear me out
i'm an adult reading a kids book
because i'm an emetophobic adult and this is a kids book about just that !
ironic really but this is actually really informative (uses proper terminology and validates emotophobia completely) and could definitely be helpful to kids who grew up with the same struggles
reading about your own fear isn't easy but the illustrations made it much less scary
i usually don't like messages that are about incouraging change in children, especially mental health wise but it's well written and helpful and made me smile and the notes to parent and caregivers were a nice touch and genuinely helpful
