Does anyone have any book or article suggestions for helping a perfectionist child? Or perfectionism in the parent(s)?

Letting Go of Perfect: Overcoming Perfectionism in Kids
What to do WHen Good Isn't Good Enough: The Real Deal on Perfectionism: A Guide for Kids
The second one is written for older kids, but I love reading books like these myself just to help me understand perspective! Hopefully one of these might help, or at least give you a starting point!Comment
