“This storybook is intended to be read by the child with and without his/her parents. It is not a storybook for any child but rather the child who has been referred with his/her [parents for psychotherapy. It is meant to assist the child in having realistic expectations about what might happen in the course of evaluation and treatment. Hopefully, this story may also assist the child and family in talking together about their first visit to a psychotherapist. It is not intended to be read as a statement about how psychotherapy should be conducted for your family and your child.” FOREWORD TO PARENTS
