How to Capture a Monster

This book provides a framework for children to plan for, think about and then move into action when they encounter a monster. 

 A monster catching backpack holds a set of simple tools that are readily available and easy to obtain. Step by step actions are provided by an experienced user about how to go about capturing monsters. The approach is proven, simple and effective. The pack can be replenished after each monster is captured. And is ready for use again when the next monster pops up. Children can actively engage in pulling together the tools and using them when they are faced with a monster.

Annie Frome, a brain based coach helps people think about solutions then move into action. This book was created when her son was young and afraid of monsters. The process outlined in this book was created to help him feel like he could actively take measures to feel safe and sleep well. And it worked. Perhaps it can work for your sweet child as well.

Matthew Eaton is a photographer and storyteller who has a backpack for every adventure life brings his way.  Even his dogs have their own backpacks stuffed with toys and treats.
