Meet Sarah. Sarah feels compelled to count. She has obsessive–compulsive disorder, or OCD for short. But with the help of her family and her therapist, Sarah learns how to handle her fears and take charge of her OCD.

A Note to Readers by Michael Tompkins, PhD, offers readers kid-friendly information, advice, and proven strategies to turn OCD on its head.

"Written in a mixture of diary entries and narrative, the reader gets insight into OCD through the eyes of a child their age suffering through it. Tips that help. Strategies that work. Analogies that amuse. While OCD doesn't go away in a day, for Sarah or for anyone, the story shows how it can be alleviated with help, practice, and proper tools."
