My name is Jonah Matthews and at the time of writing this book I am twelve years old. The purpose of this book is to help those around my age learn ways to be their best self as a kid for their parents and peers. I'm inspired by the passion my dad has to help others as a marriage and family therapist. When I found out he was writing a book, I was motivated to write my own as well. So I started thinking, how can I help kids around my age? I realized every kid needs to ask for things. So I compiled twenty-two real-life stories of my experiences, with three key traits I feel you need to make your parents proud (and get what you want!). I hope you enjoy it.

Invisible Elephants
Invisible Elephants addresses some of the hidden problems that face young people today, with the 'invisible elephant' used as a place holder for alcoholism, drug addiction, unwanted physical contact or family violence. This particular story is based on the author's early life growing up in an alcoholic family and is written from the perspective of a young child. The advice at the back of the book reinforces the strategies for dealing with an invisible elephant, should a child find themselves to be living with one. It encourages young people to speak out and seek help in a safe way. Sadly, children dealing with these situations are frequently sworn to silence and do not feel able to seek the help they so desperately need.
