Synopsis
Are you alright pet? will make you feel brave and confident enough to love yourself just the way you are. This simple, effective, technique requires no rocket science, no support groups and certainly no sitting around in a circle, cross-legged and confessing to somehow not being Elizabeth I, Florence Nightingale and Emmeline Pankhurst all rolled into one. It's the serious self-help equivalent of a cup of decent tea, a custard cream and a ruddy good cause to fight for. Chances are that you're already putting the few skills that you need into practice, each and every day. We Brits like our Health Service to be Public and our Self-Help to be Private. We like our play to be fair and our underdogs to be winners. The only outward sign of your day-to-day success - other than maybe occasionally leaping tall buildings to come to your own defence - will be an enigmatic "Now I know something you don't know" smile.

Customer Reviews

Innovative, insightful and interesting.
A unique view of the human psyche. I would recommend it to anyone in need of a hug from a friend. The author's approachable, non-judgemental style makes this book difficult to put down.

Are you alright Pet?
The title imediately caught my attention, which was then held by the simple but life affirming message that is repeated through out the book. I really enjoyed the journey through the vignettes, and found the sincerity and humour of the situations a refreshing change from the run of the mill 'you need to change' self-help books that are churned out.

Are You Alright Pet?
Practical and funny at the same time. It really works.
I bought my copy after quickly flicking through a friends and it looked like a refreshing change from the intense and self absorbed other books I've read over the years. The book describes an easy technique about caring for ourselves as well as we mostly care for our animals and pets in England by using our inner voices to talk to ourselves the same way. Everyone says I've been talking to myself for years but now I know why. This is all about inside. I didn't have to tell even the dogs that I was doing it and I really do feel happier and more confident immediately.
