By providing straightforward, well-researched information,

this series fosters tolerance and understanding of different mental

illnesses and disorders and discusses their possible causes, effects,

and treatments. Each title begins with the sentence “People who

cope with mental illness and disorders deserve our empathy and

respect”: a poignant statement that reflects this set’s compassionate

perspective. The books present relatable examples in order to shed

light on these disorders, while at the same time demystifying some of

their more uncommon aspects and dispelling stereotypes.

VERDICT: A detailed, respectful, and thoughtful look

at mental health topics.
