This gentle introduction to the concept of exposure therapy for kids will help them deal with phobias.

Tommy is terrified of dogs. When he gets an invitation to a big birthday party at his neighbor’s house, his heart sinks—he can’t possibly go, the dog is enormous and scary! But instead of staying away, he and his mom hatch a step-by-step plan to face and overcome his fears in time to enjoy the party. 

Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers about how to support kids working through exposure therapy.
