Just bumping this thread...I just discovered it whilst looking for something else.

I read the "Now what" book a while ago and I was very impressed with it.

My kids havent read it but for me it described my journey over the years.

Canteen's has some great stuff for kids.
You can also order the free book of the website. (There's a 6 week waiting list due to demand at the moment.)

Check it out. It might also give you some ideas as to how your child(ren) might be thinking/feeling at the moment.
