Mark Cheverton is on the Reading With Your Kids Podcast to celebrate his children's book facing the beast within. He explains that the story is about a group of kids who must stop a demon from invading and destroying New Orleans. Mark shares that the story was inspired by his own son's struggles with severe anxiety in school. He discusses how removing his son from the traditional school environment helped alleviate his anxiety symptoms. Mark also talks about including anxiety coping techniques from child psychologists in the book to help other anxious children. He provides the example of "box breathing" and has the host and himself demonstrate it. Mark discusses his son's ongoing success in college now and how facing the beast within aims to help kids know they are not alone in their struggles.
