Where Entertainment and Health
Meet: A New Irresistible Series
"The Nat Says Series provides busy adults
and kids with a better understanding of optimal mental health, how
to fortify it and improve it-- all while being entertained."
-- Len Duhl, Professor of Public Health
at Berkeley & Pioneer of WHO Healthy Cities Project in Europe
"Today's busy adults and curious kids need
to be entertained. They are not going to be found pondering over
health pamphlets, working through a stress management program, or
reading self help books, unless they already have a life changing
problem and are in real pain. By then its often too late. The divorce
has happened, the kids are hanging out with the wrong crowd or addicted
to drugs, and one's job has become so stressful that you don't sleep
well at night," says author and illustrator, Nathalie Ishizuka.
"Psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers can all do
their part in helping us pick up the pieces, but somehow we have
to help ourselves before things get that bad."
Rather, than waiting until the pieces fall apart,
Ishizuka wants to entertain and educate people before problems arise.
Hence the birth of an entertaining illustrated health series, Mom
Says, Dad Says, Nat Says: Other that reads much like the St. Exupery's
The Little Prince, but with a different message. The book is about
optimal health, what we wished our Mom had told us, what our Dad
may not have known, and what our own head and heart might still
have difficulty grasping. Unless, like the characters in the book,
your Mom has a 'savoir vivre' that is larger than life, your Dad
an internationally renown Harvard trained psychiatrist on health,
and you like the author Nat, has spent years trying to integrate
both your Mom's heart and your Dad's head.
This heartwarming illustrated book is for busy
adults and kids who have felt picked on (and who hasn't), or constrained
by a label (their own or someone else's). Child psychiatrists, psychologists,
social workers and teachers will also get a lift from its freshness.
Through the surprising coping strategies in the book, being different,
can suddenly become a formidable stepping stone to health.
Nathalie
