Mindful Monsters: Sets 1 – 2

It's not always easy to talk about your feelings! Naming emotions and talking about them are essential social and emotional learning concepts, but it can be challenging for children to put them into practice. These delightful picture books help early learners with knowledge building surrounding their feelings and healthy coping strategies for different emotions. As they read about Albus Anger, Frankie Fear, Suki Sadness, and other monster friends, they gain confidence in identifying their own emotions. Each illustrated volume presents a relatable narrative that can be read independently or as part of story time at school or at home.

Key Features of Each Volume:
• Characters that personify emotions that young children experience but might struggle with naming to help them find the language to talk about their feelings with accuracy and clarity
• A gentle, relatable tone that encourages self-compassion as well as empathy, as emotions are treated as normal parts of life and not things to be shamed or afraid of
• Age-appropriate coping tips that are woven into the narrative structure of each volume
