Teachers, therapists and parents frequently find themselves ill-equipped to help children struggling with the difficult feelings brought on by situations like the COVID pandemic. The storytelling toolkit will enable children to see themselves as the hero of their own story, and to reinstate a sense of optimism in the face of the pandemic.
