Becoming Calm

Becoming Calm – A Children’s Guide to Handling Big Feelings 🌈

Big emotions like anger, frustration, and irritation can feel overwhelming for kids and stressful for parents too. But with the right tools, children can learn to understand their feelings, communicate them in healthy ways, and find calm even in tough moments.

In Becoming Calm, children join Amary on her journey to recognize and manage explosive emotions. Through relatable challenges and gentle guidance, Amary shows readers how to:

• Identify emotions and understand where they come from
• Practice calming strategies when they feel upset, mad, or frustrated
• Communicate better with friends, family, and teachers
• Build empathy by considering how others feel
• Develop resilience through self-awareness and self-compassion

With colorful illustrations and practical examples, this book helps kids see that emotions aren’t “bad”, they’re signals. And when children learn to respond to those signals in healthy ways, they gain stronger relationships, better focus, and a calmer, more confident self.

✨ Perfect For:

• Parents who want to support their child’s social-emotional learning (SEL)
• Teachers and counselors guiding classroom discussions on emotional regulation
• Children ages 4–14 learning how to manage anger, stress, and frustration

Becoming Calm is more than just a story, it’s a toolkit for kids to grow into emotionally intelligent, resilient, and compassionate individuals.
