Uncle Jay would mumble, grumble, and get nervous ticks. He would talk to imaginary friends and sometimes forget to get dressed.
His room would be in disarray, with things strewn across the floor. Sometimes, he would get upset. But never once did I did fret.
You see, uncle Jay wasn't always this way. But somehow, in some way, something made him sick. And for that, people would freak.
And while I wonder and get confused, uncle Jay would always make my day.
He brings me sweets and tells me stories. He always gives me a big smile and huggies.
I love my uncle Jay. And for that, beside him I'll stay.
"Uncle Jay Has a Booboo" is a heartwarming story between a little girl and her uncle Jay who has schizophrenia.
Mental illness is an invisible disease and people who suffer from them are treated as outcasts. Even more concerning, kids with loved ones who suffer from mental illness are also affected emotionally, socially, and behaviorally.

At the end of the day, this book is meant to become a communication tool to help ease children's confusion and help them create positive coping skills when dealing with loved ones who are suddenly behaving oddly.
If you're looking to reduce the stigma associated with a difficult mental condition that may create threatening and challenging situations for your child, then this book is for you.
