Industry Reviews
"What a positive and powerful contribution to our understanding of a much-misunderstood illness. As a bereaved father, I am sure my son's struggle with depression was seriously hampered by the scandalous stigma surrounding mental health. Only by being open and honest from childhood can we hope to conquer the cruelty of depression." - Mike McCarthy - Media Trainer, former Sky News Bureau Chief & BBC News Presenter, Producer & Reporter; "The content and illustrations in this book are perfect for helping children to understand depression and the effects it can have on their own life and the lives of their loved ones." -Sonya Christensen - Child and Adult Psychotherapist and NLP Practitioner/Life Coach; "My Uncle Has Depression is an excellent resource for all children. It highlights the importance of supporting your family, friends and teammates. I would recommend this book to all young people in the community." - Steve McCormack - Head of Welfare, Rugby League Cares
