Allegorical stories can be used to help children cope with the worries and fears precipitated by illness, medical procedures, and hospitalizations. They supplement explicit discussions of illness and preparation for procedures and hospitalization. Stories with appropriate symbolic themes are readily available in children's literature. Individuals without special training in counseling or emotional support of children can quickly learn to use these stories effectively. Parents can be especially effective readers because this role reinforces their natural supportive relationship with their child and facilitates open discussion of emotional issues within the family.
