Mckenna Learns To Share The Spotlight

Does your child struggle with the "green-eyed monster" when a friend succeeds?

McKenna worked harder than ever on her watercolor sunset. She can almost feel the first-place blue ribbon in her hands. But when her best friend, Mia, wins the grand prize instead, McKenna feels a prickly, green wave of envy wash over her. Her tummy is tight, her face is hot, and she definitely doesn't feel like cheering.

In McKenna Learns to Share the Spotlight, young readers will join McKenna on a relatable journey through the difficult emotions of jealousy and disappointment. As the "green feeling" threatens to ruin her friendship, McKenna must learn how to use mindful breathing and perspective-shifting to calm her heart.

This heart-warming social-emotional story helps girls ages 6-8:

• Identify Physical Cues: Recognize how envy feels in the body before it turns into unkind words.
• Practice Mindfulness: Use simple techniques to navigate "big feelings" in the heat of the moment.
• Cultivate Compersion: Learn the joy of celebrating a friend's success without losing their own sparkle.
• Build Resilience: Understand that a "participation star" doesn't define their talent or worth.

Perfect for parents, teachers, and counselors, this book is an essential addition to any Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) library. Help your daughter turn her envy into empathy and discover that there is plenty of room for everyone to shine!
