Why do I get angry so fast? Why does my tummy hurt when I'm worried? Why can't I remember being a baby?
Your child asks these questions. Now they can finally understand the answers.
How It Feels & How It Works: Your Wonderful Mind is the first children's book that connects emotions to brain science-giving kids aged 7-10 the language to understand their feelings and the tools to manage them.
Meet Leo Curio - Your Child's Guide to Their Own Mind
Leo is a curious chameleon who changes color with his emotions (just like your child!). Together with Leo, readers explore the incredible spaceship inside their head-discovering why they feel the way they feel, and what they can do about it.
Through memorable analogies and gentle science, children learn:
✅ The Guard Dog - Why anger strikes so fast (and how to calm it with the Cooling Breath)
✅ The Red Phone - Why tummy aches happen when we're nervous (and how the brain and gut talk to each other)
✅ The Night Shift - Where dreams come from (and why they're so strange!)
✅ The Captain - How to be brave even when scared (because bravery isn't the absence of fear)
✅ The Superhighway - Why hard things get easier with practice (the science of not yet)
✅ The Soul Map - What makes your child uniquely, wonderfully THEM
More Than a Book - An Interactive Adventure
Every chapter ends with an Explorer's Mission - hands-on activities designed for parent-child connection:
- The Cooling Breath (calm anger like cooling hot cocoa)
- The Whisper Test (discover your inner voice)
- The Brave Pose (stand like a superhero to feel like one)
- The Dream Journal (catch your dreams before they fade)
- And many more!
These aren't worksheets. They're adventures. Tools your child will use for life.
