Press Reviews

  • Janna Bronkhorst, parent of a child with OCD

    I sat down to read this book to my five year old and very quickly my seven and eleven year old were listening intently too, they were excited to hear a relatable story. My kids took turns relating to the character with OCD and identifying ways they could boss back their bossy cloud and reclaim their happiness. This book also provides a way for siblings to understand and encourage one another while navigating OCD.

  • Dawn Huebner, PhD, Author of Outsmarting Worry and Dr. Dawn's Mini Books About Mighty Fears

    The perfect marriage of an easy-to-follow story and evocative art, this gem of a book provides concrete guidance to young children struggling with OCD (and their parents). Highly recommended.

The delightful illustrations and light touch make this difficult topic accessible for young children. The "Bossy Cloud" provides the perfect language to help children and their parents discuss OCD in their own lives. Warmly recommended!
