Dr Alex George’s debut book for children and young people.

What if we could think of mental health in a positive way? Sweep away the rain clouds. Talk about what’s on our minds. And care for our mental health in the same way we look after our bodies.

A Better Day is a positive, accessible and practical toolkit guiding young readers in how they can care for their mental health with confidence.

This book provides all the scaffolding and practical techniques to help you do this, so though you might be having a hard time right now, you can look toward your future with optimism and positivity. Because no matter what, there is always hope for a better day.
