What if there were a relatable team of superheroes to intervene and teach your kids bravery, kindness, calm, and grit when they need it most? Julie Anne and Darren Penn wanted their son to grow up understanding that true power comes from within, so they wrote a series of books to help him find the necessary tools to navigate life. Their books are designed to teach children the importance of regulating their emotions and provide parents with the resources to help when they need it most. Their four books, Benny the Brave, Keisha the Kind, Chloe the Calm, and Gen the Grit empower kids to take control of their feelings and give parents the vocabulary to guide their little ones through day-to-day challenges. Tune in today to hear their story, the response they've received, and an outline of the basic principles kids can connect to in the book, which they can carry throughout their lives. Thanks for listening!
