The Thought Giggies

The Thought Giggies

"It is easier to build strong children than to fix broken men." -Frederick Douglass 


The concept of the ‘Thought Giggies’ series was inspired by the work of world-renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Aaron T. Beck and the above quote by writer, Frederick Douglass. 


Dr. Beck is widely considered to be the father of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, which is

"It is easier to build strong children than to fix broken men." -Frederick Douglass 


The concept of the ‘Thought Giggies’ series was inspired by the work of world-renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Aaron T. Beck and the above quote by writer, Frederick Douglass. 


Dr. Beck is widely considered to be the father of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, which is based on the concept that our thoughts impact our emotions and behaviors. What we think, we become. Our thoughts stem from our core beliefs, and sometimes those beliefs are not entirely accurate. CBT seeks to help people uncover those faulty beliefs and replace them with healthier, more positive thoughts. There are numerous books that teach these concepts to adults but none for children, until now. 


The 'creatures' in these books are an homage to Tammy's beloved daddy, Courtland 'Gigi' Allen, a man who was the epitome of positivity. He managed to maintain a sunny disposition and a smile on his face, regardless of what life threw at him. Tammy describes him as one of the most joyful people she has ever known. 

Tammy's daddy passed away in the spring of 1998, but she believes he has been watching over and guiding this project from day one. Being his daughter makes her tremendously proud and she is certain he couldn't be happier to see his namesake come to life in this way.
