After earning his master's degree in counselling psychology, the author has spent more than thirty years working with children and families. He has worked extensively with difficult children, including those children who struggle with oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder. He comes to us at a time when the exaggerated importance of pursuing one's desires is at an all-time high. Emerging from this background in child psychology, the author employs metaphor and rhyme to reach the youngest of minds with this urgent message: learn to say no to the pig in your head. On a deeper note, he conveys a sense of hope in the notion that happiness cannot be found in chasing your wants, but contentment can be discovered on the pathway to self-trust.
