Description

Helping Children Be Kind to Themselves After Mistakes – Through Self-Compassion, Courage, and Their Own Inner Voice From the bestselling author, discover this beautifully illustrated rhyming picture storybook. Does your child shut down or feel deep shame when they make a mistake? Do they struggle with big feelings of embarrassment, self-doubt, or the fear of getting things wrong? Leo and the Shame Whisperer gently guides children through the emotional journey of making mistakes with a warm, rhyming tale that turns shame and self-criticism into self-compassion and courage. Grounded in social emotional learning and emotional resilience principles, this story helps young readers understand that mistakes are not something to fear — they are how we grow. What's the story about? Leo wants everything to go perfectly. But one day, the spills happen, the drawing goes outside the lines, the hockey shot is missed, and the slide ends in a tumble. Each time Leo stumbles, he braces for the worst until something unexpected happens. His own reflection looks back at him and whispers the kindest words he has ever heard. From puddles to windows to shiny doors, Leo's reflection becomes his guide, teaching him to breathe, to speak gently to himself, and to understand that trying is always enough. By the time Leo reaches home and shares his day with his mum, he is ready to face tomorrow with a smile. What makes the Shame Whisperer so powerful? This heartwarming rhyming picture book does something most children's books about mistakes never do. It teaches children not just that mistakes are okay, but how to actually feel okay after making one. Through Leo's inner voice, children are introduced to real coping tools: deep breathing, positive self-talk, and the powerful understanding that others are too busy with their own lives to dwell on our stumbles. With beautifully illustrated everyday scenes at home, at school, on the sports field, and at the park - children recognise themselves in Leo's world. The gentle rhyming text makes it perfect as a read-aloud book, while the emotional depth makes it a valuable tool for parents, teachers, and school counsellors alike.
