About Iris the Dragon

Iris the Dragon (Charity) was created to provide educational material for adults and young readers to help facilitate a conversation between parents, teachers and children about issues relating to mental health and wellness. Iris the Dragon’s books address a variety of emotional, behavioural and neurodevelopmental conditions and recognize the importance of family, school, and community in promoting the potential of every child and youth, regardless of mental health challenge. Support of children’s mental health initiatives promotes positive youth development, recovery, and resilience, and allows children with mental health needs to thrive in their communities.

Iris the Dragon books are an effective and trusted resource for children and caregivers. All the books have been vetted and endorsed by professionals in the fields of psychiatry and neurology. In addition, the use of the fairy tale format in each book helps the topic of mental health disorders be dealt with in a sensitive and caring approach. Educators in Canada and the United States have found the books to be empowering tools for those that have mental health conditions. Parents and doctors have commented that Iris' books provide an excellent opportunity to begin a dialogue about topics that were previously difficult to discuss with children.
