Lately, things have been getting Charlie down. It’s like he’s got a big rock that just won’t go away. He talks to Dad about it, and Dad brings out a dusty old book with a lot of tough rules. The first rule is you don’t talk about rocks (feelings).
But the rules make things worse – Charlie’s ‘rock’ gets bigger, and everything feels dark and scary. They need some new rules – fast.
