Reviews
 
“Elsie and Granny Grace put the amorphous and abstract concept of emotional regulation into accessible terms that kids can understand and relate to. Including powerful imagery and lifelike characters, this book is memorable and is sure to be a new favorite. I am eager to share this gem with my students and children!

“Elsie's Adventures to Brainy Cove” explains the brain and the neuroscience of emotions to children and others so they can understand their meaning. It gives children ways to feel emotions by calming down and giving them ways to deal with them. This is an excellent book I will use in my classroom counseling sessions, along with individual and group counseling.

“Elsie’s Adventures to Brainy Cove is a great book to teach emotional awareness to young students. As a special education teacher, I have begun using the terminology from the book with my students. My students were able to use the emotional regulation terms and imagery to identify what they were feeling. I am looking forward to incorporating this book into my lessons.”
-Jessica Goldhorn, Special Education Teacher
