WINNER OF THE GOLDEN WIZZARD BOOK PRIZE! Oh boy, it’s me—Book—and I’m feeling *way* too frazzled! My pages are a scribbled mess, my words are running in circles, and my head feels so full I can’t even think straight. Is it “Once upon a…banana?” No, that’s not right! I’m overwhelmed, and I need *your* help to settle down, focus, and get my pages back on track. *This Book is Overwhelmed* is a fun and interactive story designed to help children understand and ease sensory overwhelm, sensory overload, and those moments when busy minds just can’t concentrate. For kids with ADHD, autism, or anxiety—or anyone with a head that feels too full—it offers simple prompts to help readers slow down, focus, and feel more in control. Written by the award-winning author of *When Things Get Too Loud,* this book creates a “book bestie” for children who need a gentle way to process big emotions, tackle restlessness, or wind down when they can’t sleep. Packed with humor, encouragement, and exercises for mindful regulation, *This Book is Overwhelmed* is a must-have for every busy mind looking for calm in the chaos. "One of the best children's books I've ever come across! I absolutely love it! It's a true work of art that warrants every bit of praise for its brilliance! With her talent for infusing humour and playfulness into her writing, Alcott allows children to relate to the material effortlessly. She introduces various strategies that are not only effective but also engaging, ensuring that each method is presented in a way that captivates the imagination. The creativity embedded in the storytelling transforms the reading experience into an interactive journey, where children can explore their emotions while being entertained. This unique approach makes the lessons both memorable and impactful, in fact, the happiness and calm it brings can be felt right away. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to families, schools, and anyone passionate about nurturing young minds. The blend of fun and insightful lessons within make it a treasure that young readers will want to visit repeatedly, allowing them to reap new rewards each time." -Louise Jane, CEO of the Golden Wizzard Book Prize
