Are You Mad At Me?

Sisters Tyler and Cody Feder are on the #ReadingWithYourKids #Podcast to celebrate their children's book "Are You Mad At Me?" The story follows Opal, an anxious ostrich with a wiggly neck, as she embarks on a journey to pick up a dessert for her family's party. Along the way, Opal misinterprets the actions of various animals and believes they are mad at her. Through these encounters, Opal learns to consider alternative explanations for their behavior, helping her cope with her anxiety. The authors emphasize the importance of understanding and supporting children dealing with anxiety, highlighting that anxiety is a real and overwhelming experience for kids. They encourage parents to be curious and empathetic when their children exhibit anxious behavior, rather than dismissing it. The book provides a gentle and relatable way to start conversations about anxiety with children. It helps kids recognize that not everything is about them and that there are various factors influencing people's behavior. "Are You Mad at Me?" is a valuable resource for parents and educators to support children in managing their anxiety.
