The twins think their dad is great, but sometimes his MS makes him tired or a bit slow when they go for a walk. This delightful illustrated book, written by Jo Johnson, is aimed at children under 10 and gives a realistic but reassuring picture of how families deal with MS. Reading it with a child can help to raise some of the issues of MS in a natural, non-pressured way.

This way of thinking about your MS doesn?t suit everybody, but many people who have used this approach seem to find the idea of shrinking the monster increases their feelings to control. Drawing on ?cognitive behavioural therapy? and ?narrative therapy?, Shrinking the monster tackles serious, personal issues, but can be used and discussed with the whole family including young children.
