    Review quote
    "[This is] the 'Harry Potter' of the hypnosis world. Now, when parents ask clinicians how we can help their children, Linda Thomson has provided the answer--we teach them to hypno-potamize!" -- Julie Linden, PhD "President-elect, American Society of Clinical Hypnosis"
    Main description
    Now available in paperback, this best-selling collection of 32 metaphorical stories addresses a variety of physical and behavioral problems facing children. Reading the title story to a child is a wonderful way to introduce him or her to the idea of hypnosis. All of the full-color illustrated stories feature animals in a zoo that rely on the guidance and support of Dr. Dan, the zoo's vet, to help master such problems as: -Phobias and anxiety attacks -Pain management -Habits and habit control -Sleep disorders -Death and dying -Asthma & other serious medical disorders. Some of the therapeutic interventions are very problem specific while others are more general and can be used for a variety of conditions. Introductory clinical material explains how to use the book whether the clinician decides to use the stories verbatim or to adapt them.
