We bought My Brain Is a Home and My Brain First Aid. We absolutely love these books and I especially love hearing our kids stories from their days at school—how they talk themselves down from stressful situations now, how they say nice things to build their confidence, how they help their friends with the tools they’ve learned from these books. When my youngest misses a shot on net he says, “at least I took the shot!” And My Brain First Aid has helped teach us how to come back to center when everything has fallen apart, or how to prevent it from coming to that point. VERY worth it and I’ll be keeping these in our library for years to come, Also, its fascinating learning different parts of the brain, their uses and how they work together. Thank you!
Great information presented in away that lets kids know they’re intelligent.
nicely done
My kids loved this book and I bought it for my 8year old to help prep her for an operation she was very worried about it. It really helped her with techniques to get through those worries - highly recommend!
Great for kids. Highly recommend.
