Children can develop the ability to respond to their emotions in a healthy way through the practice of mindfulness.

The beautifully hand-painted illustrations provide the perfect landscape to tell the story of Andy and his journey in learning the wonderful skill of mindfulness.

Sometimes Andy gets angry when he loses. Sometimes he gets so angry in class when he doesn’t know the answer to a question.

Sometimes Andy gets angry when Bobby takes his toys … or when Sierra won’t stop singing!

Sometimes he gets angry when his parents raise their voices.

4 Stars

Andy Gets Angry by Author Mike Masse provides some easy techniques for children to use to channel their anger, and relieve their feelings of anxiety. To say this is a children’s book though, is a stretch. It’s more of a ‘discussion’ book for parents and children to share. Or, possibly, for educators to recommend when students are displaying anger in the classroom.

As a grandmother of five, I’ve definitely seen my share of childhood and adolescent anger. I appreciate the ease of the technique Mr. Masse teaches here, and enjoyed the lovely illustrations.

Celebrate with us via Zoom as we launch Antoinetta Vogels' new book, "How to Overcome Insomnia All by Yourself: a Healthy Sense of Self Guide to Getting a Good Night's Sleep." The party will take place on May 7.

About the Book

It's time for bed. You're tired, but you know you'll be tossing and turning for hours to come. At dawn, you fall into a deep sleep, but it is short-lived. Long before you're ready, your alarm clock mercilessly informs you that it's time to get up.

After decades of nights like this, Antoinetta Vogels managed to unravel the enigma of her sleeping problem and restore her ability to get a good night's sleep.

In How to Overcome Insomnia All by Yourself, Antoinetta reveals how to become a healthy sleeper through self-knowledge. Using examples from her own life and firsthand experience with this sleep disorder, Antoinetta explores the childhood circumstances that can lead to unhealthy motivation, approval-seeking behavior, and chronic insomnia in adulthood. She offers practical advice and activities that you can use to heal the wounds of the past so you can enjoy a brighter future full of joy, healthy relationships, and restful sleep.


Available on Amazon
