Am I A Fish? Kristin Heins

This book series is designed to help teach children to navigate the feelings, thinking and decision making processes that ultimately shape the people they are in the world. Using age-appropriate and educationally-grounded techniques and prompts, children will develop specific skills to improve emotional regulation, heighten interpersonal skills, develop compassion, and understand and utilize clear intellect.

Am I A Fish? highlights the concept of decision making as a privilege children have to skilfully shape their world in whatever manner they wish. Through memorable rhymes and colorful illustrations, children are introduced to cause-and-effect relationships, and explore judgement, emotionality, relationality and compassion, all toward distinguishing one's self intentionally through decisions.

This book is an essential tool for caregivers, educators, child support workers and therapists to facilitate important and timely dialogue during a child's highly formative years. It initiates and ably guides supportive discussions on topics that are otherwise difficult to broach and explore progressively.
