Let the Adventure Begin! Written by world-renowned neuropsychiatrist and co-author of The Whole-Brain Child, Dr. Dan Siegel, NowMaps Jr. is a delightful rhyming story that introduces kids to the neuroscience of early childhood social-emotional learning in a captivating, interactive way! Kids ages 3-6 will love this beautifully illustrated choose-your-own adventure book that whisks them off to distant lands – including a jungle, a desert, and a pirate ship – as they learn about their thoughts, feelings, and sensory experiences. Using three easy-to-remember tools – a pause button, a focus flashlight, and an OK monitor – children will learn how to create their very own NowMap, an internal snapshot of their present-moment experience, so they can navigate tricky feelings like disappointment, impatience, boredom, sadness, and anger with kindness.
