A book to help my child understand OCD

[Wilma Jenks]

Is there a really simple book that would help my child understand what is happening to her? She has a really hard time reading. She is 12 but needs simple simple. Even a picture book with few sentences. She is so confused and agitated that she never even really asks about her OCD, but perhaps I could have the book lying around in the event she ever wonders....

For me, I was gong to buy "Saving Sammy" and "Freeing my child from obsessive compulsive disorder". Any others that you could recommend?

You could try "What to do When Your Brain Gets Stuck" http://www.amazon.com/What-When-Brain-Stuck-What-/dp/1591478057/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1305952961&sr=1-1 and "Up and Down Worry Hill" http://www.amazon.com/Down-Worry-Hill-Childrens-Obsessive-Compulsive/dp/0967734762/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1305953175&sr=1-1
