gros chagrins. Tout comme l'adulte, l'enfant n'est pas à l'abri des soucis de l'existence. Face aux difficultés, il n'a pas tous les outils. Par ses personnages attachants auxquels l'enfant peut s'identifier, le conte lui permet de nouer un dialogue avec son entourage et d'amadouer son anxiété en évoquant, directement ou non, ce qui le trouble. Près de cent histoires pour dédramatiser toutes les situations : peur du noir, cauchemars, entrée à la grande école, disputes, maladie, naissance d'une petite sœur... Des fiches pratiques expliquent le traumatisme que vit l'enfant et donnent les clés pour l'aider à y faire face.

By Shannon Wiersbitzky. 2011
Delia's summer is getting off to a terrible start. First an inspector shows up at the house and threatens to…
condemn it. Then lightning strikes, literally, and Mama ends up in the hospital. To make matters even worse, with no other family to speak of, Delia is forced to move in with her nemesis, Tommy--As-Dense-As-a-Stump--Parker. Not one to sit around doing nothing, Delia huddles with her best friend, Mae, and reluctantly recruits Tommy to help. The three of them resolve to tackle the long list of repairs one by one. But Delia quickly discovers that it takes more than energy and willingness to handle some problems. When things go from bad to worse, Delia has to take another tack, one that starts with admitting she just can't do what needs to be done without a lot more help. The Summer of Hammers and Angels is the story of an amazing summer in a girl's life, a summer of surprises and challenges, of shocks and recovery, of discoveries and friendship, and of loneliness and community.
