Didn't like it.....
A neighbor told me about this book bc her daughter struggles with anxiety so I bought it w/o reading reviews. My 10 yr old daughter read it twice before I had the chance to read it with her. I was surprised at all the drama in the story and also to the references to Heavenly Father & Jesus. I want my daughter to solve her own problems rather than pray to a God to "fix her problems". I agree with several other reviewers... I also did not like the talk about wanting to die to makes the "icky feelings" go away. I live in UT where teen suicide continues to rise. The book gave us some talking points but this is not the way I teach my kids. This book is not a keeper in our family library.
