A children's book designed to teach and help children learn large concepts at an early age. As a mental health professional and complex PTSD specialist, it's imperative that we nourish the emotional wellness for kids. Too often are teens and adults seen struggling to overcome major obstacles in their lives simply because self-regulation strategies weren't talked about or modeled enough while growing up. When we teach and practice emotional regulation skills at an earlier stage in development, the ability to heal and overcome life's many challenges is amplified and accelerated. This children's book teaches children that forgiveness is a choice that can increase and strengthen their overall self-confidence and sense of control in the world around them. It is filled with illustrations and interactive visualization strategies to help kids not only learn and talk about the concept of forgiveness but practice it as well. This can help facilitate in-depth discussions around feelings of sadness or anger in addition to how we can resolve and overcome those feelings. This book is recommended for all caregivers (parents, grandparents, etc), teachers, mental health/child play therapists, school counselors, or anyone else looking to educate and empower the little ones around them. By practicing the art of forgiveness, we release the things that have been emotionally difficult for us by renewing our sense of dignity and regaining our personal freedom. Be FREE

For every child who longs to make the most amazing thing, here's a delightful picture book biography of a determined self-taught inventor who never stops following the call to imagine, discover, create.From the time he is a small boy, Franz is curious about machines and how they work. He wants to try to build his own. Even though he's needed to work on the family farm, and later marries and has a family of his own, Franz never gives up on his dream. He learns and tries and tests his ideas all on his own. And though many people don't understand or appreciate Franz's work, when his fantastic, complex creation is completed at long last, he finally finds an audience that recognizes his genius.Beth Anderson's uplifting picture book biography offers an engaging look at the inspiring life of Franz Gsellmann, an inventor from rural Austria who, with no formal artistic or engineering training, built an elaborate, intricate machine called the Weltmaschine (World Machine). The well-told story extols the joy of curiosity and inventing for inventing's sake, and explores the concept of mechanical-kinetic sculptures, in which art and science intersect. Whimsical illustrations by Caroline Hamel help bring the subject to life. Supporting backmatter includes an author's note, resources, a biography of Franz, an explanation of the machine, a search-and-find activity and questions to get children thinking about their own ideas that could lead to fun classroom activities. This book has strong STEAM curriculum links, particularly in technology and structures, and valuable character education lessons in courage, perseverance and resilience.

They knew that the problem was an inconvenient English alphabet. In 1786, Ben Franklin, at age eighty, and Noah Webster, twenty-eight, teamed up. Their goal? Make English easier to read and write. But even for great thinkers, what seems easy can turn out to be hard. Children today will be delighted to learn that when they "sound out" words, they are doing eg-zakt-lee what Ben and Noah wanted.
