LOVELY AND INFORMATIVE CHILDREN'S BOOK
Kalantar's book is grounded in proven mindfulness strategies that help kids and grown-ups alike ground their intentions, and calm their nerves. In such a chaotic time, where children may need extra focus on social emotional skills, this book can get support parents, guardians, and teachers with reaching the needs of children. I highly recommend this book. The story is engaging, the art is beautiful, and it is a great representation of overcoming fears.
WE CAN OVERCOME ANY OBSTACLE!
I wish there were books like this when I was a child. Anxiety can be overlooked or brushed under the rug. In the second book of the Honeycake Series, Kalantar skillfully diffuses this often delicate and uncomfortable topic through a well-composed tale of empathy and compassion that is enhanced by the charming artwork. Practicing mindfulness and meditation can help ease the burden of anxiety at any age. A must-have for all early readers and a wonderful gift!
SUCH A GREAT TOOL FOR KIDS!
This book is exactly what I needed to help my 6-year-old process her emotions. She has some anxiety and I had been trying to help her learn to breathe and release for months, but she would refuse. However, once she saw herself reflected in Nala, the book's main character, she actually did it! This book is written in language and a style that really appealed to my daughter, and she loved the fact that she had seen the character before in the author's first book, Honeycake. Thanks, Medea, for creating this sweet story that has become a very useful tool in our home. It normalizes my daughter's feelings and offers suggestions for working through them. I'm a happy mom.
It's the perfect gift for all teachers and children, preschool through grade 3. It helps caregivers and educators start an age-appropriate conversation on how to overcome anxiety and help children cope with a range of emotions and teach them that they indeed hold the power to choose their actions and reactions.
