Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Powerfully illustrated, A Thought Is Just a Thought is the compelling and sympathetic story of Jenny, who suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It describes Jenny’s visits with her mother to a doctor. He notices that Jenny is afraid to stop tapping the wall with her fingers for fear that her sister won’t come home, and that she is afraid to walk on the white squares of the kitchen’s grey and white, tiled floor.
The kind Dr. Mike helps Jenny overcome her fears by showing her how to rethink the bad thoughts, and eventually she stops dwelling on the thought and its irrational consequences, realizing that, after all, a thought is just a thought.
A Thought Is Just a Thought is the very first book for children and parents that confronts OCD, a surprisingly common childhood illness. It is an excellent resource for parents and for doctors who wish better understand how to help children deal with this debilitating psychological illness.

My daughter finds this book helpful and requests to read it on ocassion. That's all I need personally to rate this book highly.
My only "complaint" is that not all children with OCD need medication, some respond to CBT. However, it appears that every child centered book on OCD assumes two things - 1. OCD needs to be medicated. And 2. OCD always results in compulsions and rituals. However, I gave this book 4 stars because it's a great book for beginning to understand what OCD is, and it points out that children who have OCD are not alone.

This was a great book for my child to read. It was easy to understand and he was so relieved to find a story that explained how he felt.
