Books of the Month resources were designed for real-life moments when your child needs support—
to build reading skills, boost confidence, and grow emotional resilience.

READ THIS WHEN…

  • READ THIS WHEN…
    Your child feels discouraged about reading, says they don’t like books, or worries they’re falling behind.
  • Your child is emotionally shut down, reactive, or just doesn't seem to care.
    Perfect for moments when you're seeing resistance, withdrawal, or big feelings—and you're not sure how to reach them.

What Customers Are Saying:

"I’ve read parenting books, I’ve tried breathing exercises—but this was the first thing that actually worked for my anxious child. The stories gave us a way to talk about big feelings without it turning into a meltdown."
— Melissa A., mom of a 6-year-old

"My daughter asked to re-read Jabari Jumps three nights in a row—and then she actually volunteered to try something new at school. That’s never happened before."
— Tina R., parent of a 7-year-old

"This packet gave me language I didn’t know I needed. The questions, activities, and book pairings helped me see my child in a new way—and helped him see himself in the characters."
— Jonathan M., dad of a 5-year-old

"I thought this would just be about reading—but it turned into healing. My son now says things like, ‘I’m just having the thought that I’m scared,’ which blows my mind. This is therapy hidden in bedtime stories."
— Renee D., mom of two
