Editorial 5-Star Review by Christine Nguyen for Readers' Favorite
Fear is a Volcano by Lauren Martin is part of the Emotion series to facilitate children of all ages on how to ease and manage their anxiety, worry, and fear. This series cleverly and creatively helps introduce children to skills that can help them deal with everyday life situations and new, scary situations like starting the first day of school. What child is not afraid of their first day of school in a new, completely alien environment to what they are used to at home? Not to mention the fear of making new friends. This is a simple and straightforward approach for young children to read with their parents about real-life skills that are important for everyone. It is always early enough to learn these fundamental skills, help recognize children's important, intense feelings, and ease them slowly and gently into the real world. Lauren Martin is both author and illustrator and has created a surefire win with her Emotion series. We can read them repeatedly to children, with many emotional topics to discuss and learn from, such as fear, anger, jealousy, insecurity, disappointment, and so much more. With her simple but effective illustrations, children are guided on how to visualize or create mental pictures in their heads using their five senses to focus on the moment with positive outcomes instead of focusing on the absolute worst-case scenario. Every parent should have all the books in Martin's Emotion series, as I find it an invaluable educational tool for teaching children about managing their emotions.
Social Emotional Learning standards are quickly becoming mandatory in many school districts. Teach your children to manage negative emotions in positive and productive ways with this fun and simple emotional intelligence and self-regulation book. The included reading response activity empowers any teacher, parent, social worker, school counselor or therapist to lead a no prep discussion or lesson about transforming fear into mindfulness and positive visualization. Text and illustrations copyright (c) 2022 by Lauren Martin. If you like Back to School Jitters, Llama Llama Misses Mama, Arthur's First Day, Lola Goes to School, Ruby's Worries, The Worry Box or Todd Parr's The Don't Worry Book, you will love this short and sweet picture book that helps even the youngest readers ease anxiety and reduce worries and fear. With the emotional regulation concepts of The Power of Now, Ninja Life Hacks, Slumberkins and A Little Spot of Emotion book sets, Fear is a Volcano is the best anxiety book to teach self-regulation coping strategies to kids of all ages. Make adult concepts of mindfulness, positive visualization, bravery and anxiety coping strategies simple and effective for toddlers, preschoolers, teens and young adults.1 different editions
