Book Review 1:
"How to Defeat Bully Brain offers young kids a colorful glimpse at how OCD can take over, and better yet, a roadmap for dealing with it: support of family and friends, a science-based step-by-step plan for challenging it, and building lasting feelings of empowerment." -- Sandra S. Pimentel, PhD

Book Review 2:
"This story - about an adult struggling with his 'Bully Brain' - destigmatizes the experience of obsessive thoughts and compulsions and provides a framework about how to start to work on them. This book would be great for parents to use with their children or as a tool in therapy for mental health professionals." -- Renata K. Martins, PhD

Book Review 3:
"How to Defeat Bully Brain captures the internal struggle that individuals with OCD face when they have bothersome intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that bully them into doing and/or avoiding things that interfere with the things they want to do. It would be a nice complement for kids and parents learning about OCD and participating in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy." -- Daisy Jackson, PhD
