Wow! This book will be SO helpful for SO many!!! Reading it was like a warm hug. It’s informative and entertaining and there are so many gold nuggets – it will be such an important companion for those young people who are trying to make sense of their world, their relationships and themselves. I can’t wait to recommend it to so many of the kids I work with.

What people are saying
This is the book I wish I read when I was a kid. I’m loving to read it as an adult and I’m so grateful it is here for my children and clients. It is a life changing book where the reader learns new skills to navigate life’s ups and downs with perspective, resilience and at times joy.
Lizzy Kirby, Counsellor
The book helped me to validate my parenting and provide reassurance that all that is needed is to do one’s best, acknowledge and celebrate mistakes and just try to have a jolly good time along the way. “How to be a fantastic sensational good enough kid” is now my go-to gift for families, teachers and my recovering perfectionist friends!
