Series Review: Let's Work It Out"This timely series will be welcome in school libraries as families everywhere are dealing with tough economic times...The message in each book is always nonjudgmental, explaining that the unfortunate circumstances are never the child's fault and are a temporary set-back. All books offer students suggestions for ways that they can personally help; other suggestions are offered to reduce embarrassment or fear by talking to a school counselor. The tone for all books is very reassuring, and I envision adults using the books to open the door for discussion."

Series Review: Let's Work It Out
"Full-page color photographs appear opposite the narratives, depicting multicultural children, parents, grandparents, social workers, and others, who demeanors match the hopeful tone of the titles. This timely series will help promote empathy and understanding for the plight of others and is a key purchase."

Series Review: Let's Work It Out
"These books stress the importance of dealing with potentially dangerous emotions rather than letting them fester. The vocabulary is easy enough for youngsters to read and understand independently. They could be a good first step toward recognizing upsetting feelings and seeking further help."
