<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Take the T out of CAN'T and the DON'T out of I DON'T KNOW! In <i>My Fantabulous Brain</i>, Julia Cook helps children understand that everyone needs help sometimes, and there are people who can give us the tools we need to make our brains stronger!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Take the T out of CAN'T and the DON'T out of I DON'T KNOW!</b></p><p>Learning doesn't come easy for many children. They struggle with schoolwork, have trouble focusing, and can't make sense of instructions. Oftentimes, these challenges can cause children to internalize their struggles and question their abilities. <b>In <i>My Fantabulous Brain</i>, Julia Cook helps children understand that everyone needs help sometimes, and there are people who can give us the tools we need to make our brains stronger!</b></p><p>Wade doesn't understand why things like math and spelling seem so easy for other kids but so hard for him. His brain doesn't seem to work right, and he can't focus with all the stuff going on in his head. He tries so hard, but feels like he stinks at everything!</p><p>Just when he is about to give up, Wade's Fantabulous Brain comes to the rescue. By using tools in his Brain Tool Box, Wade learns how to give his brain a tune up, making it stronger and more efficient. He also visits a Brain Trainer, a special brain mechanic, who teaches him how to work smarter not harder.</p><p>With a little time and a lot of hard work, Wade is amazed what he can accomplish when he and his Fantabulous Brain work together!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><i>My Fantabulous Brain</i> helps children realize that their brains (with a little training and practice) can grow, learn, and improve at anything! The story helps students understand how their brains work and how we can master new skills with determination and hard work. I could see this book being especially relevant for children with learning differences, but also helpful for all children (because we all struggle in some areas!) It could go along well with a growth mindset unit or with lessons on determination and effort.</p><p><b>Laura Oathout <br></b> <br><i>School Counselor, Instagram @musiccitycounselor</i></p><br><br><p>Having a son that struggles and seeing students with similar struggles, I see the frustration and don't want it affecting their self-esteem or giving up. This book is fantastic for all to better understand and help children realize it's okay find ways to make your brain stronger. We all want our kids to feel successful!</p><p><b>Debi Salazar</b> <br><i>Teacher, Instagram @sunshineandrainbowsinteaching</i></p><br><br><p>This book talks about how everyone's brain is unique and just because it doesn't work like someone else's, it's ok. The book is easy to read and easy to understand and shows kids that people can help them. It doesn't blame or fault a child for struggling. Rather, you can work at training your brain to help you. The book contains exercises to help (a sequence of colored arrows and you have to name the direction or the color and then switch it up). This would be great for kids in the upper elementary school grades (4th-5th) for both parents and educators.</p><p><b>Sarah Lewis</b> <br><i>Parent</i><i>, Instagram @get_ready_get_set_read</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Julia Cook, M.S. is a national award-winning children's author, counselor, and parenting expert.
