SUMMARY:Author visit by Anna Housley Juster reading "How to Train your Amygdala" and "The Best Good Thing: Discovering Joy on a Very Bad\, Smad Day""
DESCRIPTION:Anna Housley Juster\, PhD\, LICSW is a licensed child and adolescent mental health clinician\, education consultant\, and award-winning author with over twenty-five years of experience supporting children and families.  Dr. Housley Juster began her career as a Head Start teacher and spent many years working in curriculum development across formal and informal contexts including schools\, museums\, libraries\, and children’s educational media.  For several years\, Dr. Housley Juster served as director of content at Sesame Workshop overseeing curriculum development for the Sesame Street series and product development across the brand. \nThe amygdala in How to Train Your Amygdala makes complicated concepts accessible to children so they can understand their bodies\, practice impulse control\, and boost their self-regulation.  Throughout the book\, the amygdala and the reader practice anxiety-calming and mindfulness strategies such as deep breathing\, visualization\, and progressive relaxation. With anxiety on the rise among children\, learning how to calm the amygdala is a critical life skill. \n\nIn The Best Good Thing\, nothing is going well. The young narrator sharing about her day is feeling sad and mad. Smad! She knows there are no good things about the day. Her mother listens\, sympathizes\, and suggests intentionally looking for positives. The story becomes a relatable search for good things\, which are all around. A flower\, a kind neighbor\, yummy bread. Ultimately\, she discovers the best good thing of all: love.

SUMMARY:Author Janice Bangs Reading from "Mama Duck's Lost Duckling"
DESCRIPTION:Mama Duck’s eggs are hatching—but one duckling is nowhere to be found. With determination (and a whole lot of hope)\, she heads into the wetlands\, searching high and low and carefully sitting on every egg she finds along the way. But as each egg hatches\, Mama Duck discovers something unexpected: not every egg holds what she’s looking for. \nJanice Bangs turned a love of storytelling turned into a 30-year career in television\, where she produced and hosted segments\, interviewed bestselling authors\, and learned how powerful a good story can be—especially when it sparks curiosity.  Janice Bangs writes children’s stories that blend humor\, heart\, and real science.  Her books are designed for curious kids and the adults who read with them—stories that invite laughter\, questions\, and learning together. Each book includes Bonus Discovery Pages\, so families can keep exploring long after the last page is turned. \n
