    One rainy afternoon, an ordinary family gathers to encourage young Dylan. They share the story of her Auntie Christy’s years of hair-pulling, being bullied, and loneliness. Christina’s determination to overcome trichotillomania disorder is an inspirational, heart-warming boost for anyone who knows the challenges of mental health struggles, compulsions, or feels full of self-doubt. Through her parents’ care and perseverance, therapy, and gradual self-acceptance, Christina discovers that her best quality is not her hair, but the compassion she shows herself and others. Based on an inspiring true story, Tricky Trichotillomania is a multi-generational family picture book that illustrates how asking for help, finding support, and never giving up can lead to courageous action−and a rainbow after the storm! illustrator
