The Second Edition, which includes several extra chapters and games, has been released!

The author, Mary Coffman, has cleverly written a book for children, ages 5 to 8, that uses cognitive-behavioral techniques in a lively, humorous way. The 17 games in Uncle Lightfoot address a number of issues (e.g., darkness, nightmares, noises, sleeping alone) to help the child and parents reinforce positive behavior in a way that can include the entire family. The many delightful illustrations (more than 90) provided by D.C. Dusevitch, an award-winning artist, focus the child’s attention and add to the fun. A Parent Guidebook is included in the back of the book.

Uncle Lightfoot, Flip That Switch is listed as a Seal of Merit self-help book by the Association of Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies. After a recent research study was conducted on the academic version at Virginia Tech under the supervision of Dr. Thomas Ollendick, the Second Edition was released. The Second Edition contains further refinements of the earlier editions.
