What You’ll Find in Every Be Well Book

A thoughtful story
Written to help children understand experiences that may be difficult to explain or put into words.

A place to begin talking
Gentle questions and conversation prompts help children and trusted adults continue talking after the story ends.

Support for trusted adults
Practical guidance helps grown-ups prepare, listen, respond, and support a child without feeling they need to have all the answers.

Helpful resources
Carefully selected resources offer trusted adults places to turn when they would like additional information or support.

The story is not the end, but the beginning.

When the story ends...

The story is only the beginning. The hope is that a child feels safe enough to ask a question, and that a trusted adult feels supported enough to listen—even when they don’t have all the answers.

Sometimes the best answer is simply,

“I’m glad you told me.”
