A #1 New York Times Best Seller, What Do You Do With a Problem? is a story for anyone, at any age. From the same author and illustrator as the #1 nationally best-selling What Do You Do With an Idea? comes a new book to encourage you to look closely at problems and discover the possibilities they can hold. This is the story of a persistent problem and the child who isn't so sure what to make of it. The longer the problem is avoided, the bigger it seems to get. But when the child finally musters up the courage to face it, the problem turns out to be something quite different than it appeared. What Do You Do With a Problem? is a story for anyone, at any age, who has ever had a problem that they wished would go away. It's a story to inspire you to look closely at that problem and to find out why it's here. Because you might discover something amazing about your problem... and yourself.

Was working with him and encouraging him to be brave. His parents appreciated the simplicity of the message, as I hoped. It gave him a tangible picture of being brave and that it didnโt mean problems might not be there...but that we have the ability to make something out of them and can overcome them if we choose. The art is amazing and also tells the same story as the words. Favorite author. This is for adults and kids. I loved it, even as an adult of two you d adults.

Kids get the idea that successful problem-solving takes effort & making mistakes first!
I recently gave this book along with "What Do You Do With a Chance?" to my seven-year-old grandson. My husband and I were visiting and I asked him if we could work on a science kit together. My daughter suggested we work on a kit he had chosen for constructing and creating a chain reaction maze (one of many configurations that could be made with the kit). My grandson had been intimidated by all of the pieces and the instructions were just diagrams with no words and were challenging to follow. We had read the two books (one the night before and the second that morning). So I suggested that we take a change and figure out the problems together! Since the instructions were not clear, we made some mistakes that we figured out and corrected. Afterwards, my grandson kept talking about how he took a chance and that we solved a lot of problems to get the maze to work properly. I don't think he would have agreed to tackle the advanced construction kit had we not read those two books first!

Great book for any child's shelf
Kobi Yamada's books are entertaining for both children and adults. This is a great follow-up to "What do you with an idea?". In both books, the author writes about the feelings of being faced with an idea or a problem, mustering up courage and facing them. These are abstract concepts for children but the illustrator does a great job turning these abstract ideas into something concrete. Even so, my child is still a bit young but the book does provide us with some talking points. "Remember when you were scared to get up the slide? That's how this boy felt." Overall, these books are keepers. Even though my child is still a bit young to understand the abstract idea of problems, it's an entertaining read that is sure to grow with us as she gets older

Lovely message
This story actually got my 2, almost 3 yo, to pause and think about the message. She's been struggling with handling her emotions and this story got her to pause and I could see the message really resonated with her! I want to look into the other stories in this series as well! We have the Maybe book and it's absolutely beautiful. Some of these images are on the dark side but it goes with the meaning of what a problem actually is!

Great book to teach kids how to deal with problems
Sometimes, as a parent, we donโt know what kind of things the kid has gone through at school, this is a great book for them to understand that when there is a problem, the parents are always here to help. thereโs no shame to discuss the problem, and parents are always here to support them through the journey. I bought this book for my kids so that they can share their feelings, and if there are any obstacles or problems that they have a school, they can communicate and open to discussion with us. This is a great book to read, I would recommend for every parent.
