Sounds familiar?
These are all things Benny the lion cub used to say to his parents every time he went to bed or woke them up in the middle of the night. But that was a long time ago, before Benny learned how to go to sleep on his own.
This book's goal is to engage children in getting rid of nighttime fears while giving parents a roadmap for helping them through that process. This is done by using simple, proven, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy strategies, based on Dr. Kushnir's years of experience.
Going to bed and falling asleep can be a serious and stressful challenge, especially for young children. Many children experience the night and the "getting to sleep" moments as an anxious process, in a way that makes them feel distressed and many times dependent on their parents.
Parents, in turn, think that nighttime fears will probably go away if they just attend to the child's need for a few nights. Unfortunately, in many cases, the anxiety children suffer persists and intensify. The child's parental dependency at bed time increases, which often leads to frustration and anger.
This book tells the story of Benny and his family and of how they were able to work together to get rid of Benny's nighttime fears. The journey was not easy, and along the way, they had to overcome challenge after challenge, until they finally succeeded. Today Benny and his parents enjoy much better sleep. Benny is not only totally independent, but he also teaches other cubs how to overcome their own nighttime fears!
