Quit Following Me!

"Quit Following Me" is a wonderful children's book with beautiful illustrations. The main character, Jaylen, is a sweet little boy with fears that many children reading this book will be able to relate to. The book has a positive theme of loving parents supporting their child through the anxieties that are often inherent in the growth and development process of children. This book would be well suited for all children, but especially children who may experience anxiety. Additionally, the inclusion of diverse characters is a major plus as many diverse groups are often underrepresented in children's literature and children light up when they see characters that are similar to them in stories such as these. I definitely recommend this read! - Dr. Heather C. Futral Psy.D.

Quit Following Me!

"The family books we need! Books like this are important to develop a parent's empathy for a child's Vantage Viewpoint and to develop a child's emotional awareness. I particularly love the awareness and Assurance the parents gave Jaylen in his fears and work with him through problem solving. Together the family was able to work through and find laughter in such an innocent moment. These are the typical everyday issues that can sometimes be overlooked. I thank you so much for pointing it out in a positive way. My family and I look forward to many more books From Mrs. Singleton!"
