This book teaches the reader that it is totally okay to feel sadness, frustration, worry, anger, etc. and teaches the reader how to navigate this new relationship. Although a picture book, this book is useful for teens as well.</p><p><b>Katelynn Pugmire</b></p><br><br><p>With her newest book, Julia broaches the topic of the incarceration of a parent with sensitivity and compassion. The main character experiences feelings such as fear, anger, and sadness as he struggles to understand the choices that led to this consequence. <br>With so few children's books about this topic, <i>What Do I Say About That?</i> is a much needed resource for professionals and caregivers as they seek to provide support, coping skills, and healing to their most vulnerable children and families. This title will definitely be on my shelf.</p><p><b>Jennifer H.
