Fortunately, psychologists believe that books can serve as therapeutic tools--or at least as effective adjuncts to professional therapy--to help children come to terns with their parents' divorce. According to educator-counselor Joanne Bernstein, stories that confront life's problems with candor and credibility may provide insights, promote self-examination, and lead to changes in attitude and behavior.

One way stories accomplish this is through identification. Reading about the grief and anxiety of others, she explains, can arouse sudden awareness as problems that have not been consciously or completely recognized are allowed to surface.

Introduced to characters who share their difficulties, children may feel less alienated and thus freer to discuss and resolve their own plight.

(5)

① Children come to terms with their plight by reading.

② Stories are likely to alienate children from their parents.

③ Books are helpful for children whose parents are divorced.

④ Children identify themselves with characters while reading.

A Melbourne study of 6,000 people showed what owners of dogs and other pets had lower cholesterol, blood pressure and heart attack risk compared with people who didn't have pets.

Obviously, the better health of pet owners could be explained by a variety of factors, but many experts believe companion animals improve health at least in part by lowering stress.

② The healing power of dogs

③ Dogs as health care workers

④ Japanese dogs for the disabled
