Sinopsis

Can Your Child Understand What Someone Is Really Feeling—Even Before They Say a Word?

What if your child could recognize when a friend needs help, understand hidden emotions, avoid being fooled by persuasion, and build stronger friendships through empathy instead of assumptions?

Reading People is a unique, science-backed guide that teaches children ages 8–13 how to understand body language, facial expressions, tone of voice, emotions, persuasion, and human behavior through engaging stories, simple psychology, and practical activities.

Rather than teaching children to judge others, this book teaches them one powerful life lesson:

Understand first. Judge later.
