Meet the Glumm twins: Dolores and Tristan. Their 11th birthday party is going to be the best day ever! But when some friends can't make it and Arianna brings her annoying little brother, they're convinced the whole party is ruined.
Everyone feels sad, frustrated, and discouraged sometimes, but difficult feelings don't have to stop us from missing out on important things. Follow Dolores and Tristan's journey and learn how the brain gets stuck in sadness, how normal that is, and what we can do about it.
Based on the principles of acceptance and commitment therapy, this workbook is packed full of fun and engaging activities for children aged 8-12. It also includes a section for parents and caregivers with advice on how best to support your child.

Jodie Wassner, author of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Children
The Glumm Twins Unhook from Sadness is a delightful, easy-to-follow guide for young people and their families. It helps them to recognise how the language we use hooks us into some unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaving. The examples are fun, friendly and relatable, whilst steeped in good science. Such a great tool for helping kids learn about some tricky concepts to help them grow towards a fulfilling life.
