Summary: Trichotillomania
Comment: I bought this book for my 10 year old daughter who had begun the hair pulling "habit". It was very sad to hear her say that she can't help herself and continues to pull her hair out. We noticed spots on her head that were very thin. We read this book together but she would read it on her own also. It was written where she understood it and it has helped tremendously. We have discovered trigger spots and use the ideas in the book to change the habit. She has done a tremendous job at learning to control the urge to pull her hair. I would recommend this book for younger children.

Summary: Amazing!
Comment: My 10 year old daughter started pulling her hair 6 months ago. Her pediatrician told us she had trich. We tried EVERYTHING! Scolding, bribing, explaining, talking to her...EVERYTHING! After reading through this book, she was able to understand the reasons behind trich. The character in the book, Sally Sample, was very age appropriate and "talked" right to my daughter.
Although we have many "strategies" laying around our home, it is worth it!!
I am proud to say, my daughter has not pulled in 2 months now!
I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!

Summary: Great for Kids

Summary: Easy for a child to understand
Comment: This book is written in a child-friendly way and was easy for my daughter to understand. It gives great alternatives to hair-pulling to relieve anxiety. Thanks for the other great reviews recommending this book!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Probably fine for an older child...
Comment: My daughter is 6 1/2 and we've been struggling with trich for about 4 months now. This book may be helpful for an older, very motivated child or adolescent. Though my daughter reads far above her grade level it did not hold her interest and the suggestions are too involved and complex for her to follow. I'll put it away for now in case we need it later, though I hope we won't!
