Using Picture Books to Talk About Mental Illness

  • Wilmette Public Library- Youth Program Room 1242 Wilmette Avenue Wilmette, IL, 60091 United States (map)

Picture books are gateways for having meaningful conversations with children. Bring your questions to this open dialogue and discover books that are just right for your family or classroom.

Picture books create space for talking with children about complex topics. The books presented this month offer examples and language for understanding mental illness, whether it's someone we love or someone we encounter. Children's librarians will demonstrate how to use books to have safe, loving conversations about real life situations. Register Here.
