My kindergarten kids LOVED this book! It was aligned with our brains and belonging philosphy and my kids were engaged. They had so many questions and I was happy they could learn about something important in a kid friendly way.
This book is incredible! We now refer to my son’s amygdala as his guard dog and try to get it back to sleep!
Love this book as a child friendly resource.
My third graders loved it! the book is helpful and the illustrations make it so much fun.
