For every child and every adult who remembers what it was like to be one.

WAVES is a rhyming picture book written with care for children.

Strength comes from understanding, and understanding why we feel the way we do is an essential tool in becoming the person we want to be. If children can cultivate a strong relationship with themselves, they will be able to connect in a more meaningful way with others.

Teachers, therapists, and parents can use this book to teach children how to identify different feelings and provide tools to express those feelings independently and to others in a productive way.

You can brave any wave.
