Product Overview
The Tricky Sticky Addiction Monster tackles a heavy subject in a lighthearted and straightforward manner. Sam is a young boy whose mom meets the Addiction Monster. As the Monster gains a hold on her, Sam learns that it is addiction, not his mom, that is the problem, that it's not his fault, and that he will be okay- no matter what happens. The addiction that Sam's mom struggles with is not specified, allowing the book to be a help in many situations. This book is a wonderful conversation starter, and a help for anyone looking for a way to explain addiction to a child, ages 5-10 years old. Beautifully illustrated, it's a must-have resource for therapists, social workers, foster parents, counsellors, teachers, and anyone spending time with a child who has experienced the consequences of addiction.
