Children's Books
Stories to help children regulate their emotions
Hello,
I’m Tracey from tot books, book enthusiast, average runner, professional drama queen, Mum of 2, stressed, blessed and chocolate obsessed. I’ve been writing and creating children’s books for over 10 years and have just released my first emotional regulation series. Inspired by my son Johnny I hope you enjoy Dear Johnny and his adventures.
The Dear Johnny Series
The Dear Johnny series focuses on simple steps to help children regulate their emotions. The themes discussed are sharing, bad moods and worrying. The simple steps in each story have been practiced in my home for years, my eldest son Johnny came up with the strategy taught in 'Dear Johnny and the Bad Mood Cloud' and I knew I had to share it with others. I hope you enjoy Dear Johnny and his adventures.

Dear Johnny wakes with the bad mood cloud in the sky. No one is able to make the sun appear until Mum teaches Johnny 3 simple steps. Although children may not always understand how to express or cope with their emotions, we can work together to build strategies to help clear the grey clouds.
Dear Johnny and the Sharing Monster
