On this episode I discuss the book Where the Watermelons Grow by Cindy Baldwin, which is about a child and her experience with being the oldest child of a parent who is living with schizophrenia, including making sense of her mother’s mental illness on her own and her own feelings of self-blame. This book is recommended for ages 8-12 years old.
