If you have a toddler, you probably hear these words every day:
“No.”
“I want it now!”
Or tears when it’s time to say goodbye.
Those moments can feel overwhelming for both children and parents.
Today, I’m happy to share that my first children’s book has been published.
“Yan the Little Squirrel. Big Feelings. Little Choices” is a book with 3 gentle stories about those exact moments: when children feel big emotions, always say “no,” can’t wait and have separation anxiety at night or at a daycare.
As a parent and a social work student focused on emotional development, I wanted to create a story that helps families navigate these moments with greater understanding and connection.
📚 Yan the Little Squirrel is now available on Amazon.
