Hello, Child Life! It has been a while!!! Don’t worry, this post doesn’t come without “welcome back” gifts (read on for extras).
Sarah Mendivel (the enthusiastic founder of LSQ) has been quite busy over the last few years publishing her debut novel Sam’s Theory and advocating for children with trauma backgrounds all over the world.
Sam’s Theory is a young adult novel written for teens with trauma backgrounds. What makes this book so unique? It’s jam packed with therapeutic advice and real-world examples of how to cope with teen stressors like peer networking, depression, hopelessness, anxiety, and regaining control after something scary happens.
The book just recently won the “Body, Mind, Spirit Award” for being so useful and is being used in hospitals, schools, treatment centers, and private practices all over! Wondering if it’s a good fit for your unit? Take a peek on Amazon or ask Sarah for a free copy! She gives them away to loving Child Life Specialists for free on her author website.
Want to know what else Sarah has been up to? Check out lots of interviews, guest blog articles, and other appearances she’s made at http://www.SarahMendivel.com. She hopes to reconnect with child life specialists again, as they are where her heart has always been!
