Great for parents, too!

This story is great for kids and parents. This story is a great reminder for the parents that kids are experiencing and processing the world a bit differently than adults.

I absolutely love these books

I absolutely love these books. Please make a board book option available for little hands soon, that would take some stress away from when my toddler gets a hold of the pages.

Nice story

Nice story, I love how Eden was able to not chose to go down the slide and that it was okay. That she will be able to do it at another time and she is still loved

We love all 3 books!!

We got the bundle with all 3 books and my 2 year old absolutely loves all of them! He requests his “Eden Books” every night before bed. Love that they’re teaching him healthy coping skills while also being entertaining!

A must buy. You won’t regret!💯

I am not wrong when I bought these books for my son. He LOVED it!! He wants me to read it to him over and over again! Literally, even waking up in the middle of the night and read again. He absolutely can relate to each situation. We love that it included how the parents felt and how it was all addressed. This book is a must have. It is amazing!

Fabulous Book!

What a wonderful book! As a mother and teacher, I could not recommend a book more. Not only does my daughter love it, but it teaches wonderful lessons, starts great conversations and even teaches adults about their own regulation! Beautiful book for everyone!

This book 😍

I bought this book because we have had some major meltdowns about boundaries I place. I parent alone all the time because my partner is in the military and some days it just feels like me vs the toddler. I was hesitant at first because I thought this might just lead to a meltdown about wanting a popsicle to be honest. My 2.5 year old is OBSESSED with this book. The first thing he does is points to all the beautiful popsicles on the inside cover and expresses his desire for them. And then we read the book. He was spellbound the first time. It was like someone was speaking his language. The wheels turning and the empathy in his eyes were a thing to behold. The illustrations are darling and the emotions of little Eden are so obvious. The story is short but brilliantly on point. I love how daddy takes a deep breath. It’s such a good chance for me to talk about my feelings when my boy is having a hard time and how sometimes I need to calm down too. It lets me talk about the times I forget to breathe and I end up yelling and how that’s not how I want to react. I love the talk about how it’s ok to have the feelings we love you no matter what. It’s a masterpiece. I will be back for everything you write. I love a good SEL book but my kid isn’t always on board but this one has us both in love. We have had it a week and he asks for it at all hours. Every time he sees it he picks it up and hands it to me and sits in my lap. He “reads” it himself and hearing his understanding of the story is so darling. Thank you ❤️ you’re great.

Excellent resource for parents of toddlers!

Love it that there is a book in mandarin about emotional awareness and a different style of parenting than how I grew up. Please write more!!

Great story and illustrations

I got this book to read with my 4 year old. The story was relatable for both my child and myself. Our main language is English. I got the book with Traditional Chinese because I have family from Taiwan. I love that I can practice my Mandarin by reading the pinyin. My child loved the illustrations and would point out what the main character Eden was doing on each page. I also enjoyed the ending, where Eden does not go down the slide, because that is so real. Reading the book has led to many great conversations about what to do when feeling scared and about the different languages we speak.
