Help your child handle big feelings - before the meltdown.
When Milo gets cut in line at the swings, he feels the heat rise inside him. Fists clench. Face goes hot. The feeling gets bigger, and bigger, and bigger.
Sound familiar?
MindStrong Milo: Too Hot to Handle is a gentle, evidence-based picture book for ages 3-8 that helps young children:
- Recognize what anger feels like in their body
- Name what they're feeling without being overwhelmed by it
- Use simple breathing and movement tools to cool down
- Understand that feelings are messages - not problems to fix
Through Milo's story, young readers learn that anger isn't bad. It's information. And what they do with it is their choice - one small rep at a time.
What's inside:
- A gentle, beautifully illustrated story (perfect for read-alouds)
- A complete Guide for Grown-Ups with breathing exercises, body-based regulation tools, conversation starters, and journaling prompts
- Evidence-based approaches grounded in nervous system regulation, somatic release, and affect-labeling research
Written by Grace Looney, BSN, RN - a psychiatric mental health nurse and founder of the MindStrong mental fitness platform - this is the second book in the MindStrong Milo series, designed to give parents, grandparents, teachers, and counselors a real, practical tool for building emotional resilience in young children.
Because mental fitness is a skill. And every rep counts.
