Inhaltsangabe:

Be Mindful of Monsters follows a youngster named Ezzy who is trying to avoid the difficult feelings. But instead of going away, the feelings keep growing into monsters. Now, Ezzy must learn to accept them.

Drawing from mindfulness and other therapeutic techniques, this book uses relatable characters and scenarios to explain why our emotions are there and how we can live in harmony with them. As Ezzy learns to approach each feeling with curiosity and care, readers follow along on a journey of acceptance. Embracing difficult feelings can seem counterintuitive at first—especially for kids. But with therapeutic metaphors, Be Mindful of Monsters demonstrates how feelings can be our friends.
