The Red Beast Workbook uses Danni to de-personalise the self-learning aspect of this resource and it really works! The information is in abundance, including opening up the child to all eight areas of their sensory system, whilst cleverly being presented in bite size chunks. This practical workbook is a useful tool for parents, carers and all educators.
This imaginative and comprehensive workbook offers children, their families and professionals an invaluable opportunity to explore and better understand the expression of strong emotions. The emphasis on the normality of sometimes feeling angry, and the real possibility for a child to build their skills in the tricky task of self-regulation is empowering and wonderfully reassuring. The book showcases a creative, skilful and highly effective collaboration between the authors and illustrator.
There are many ways to calm the Red Beast, based on the principles of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for emotion regulation, and the latest advances in understanding the sensory profile associated with autism. This new workbook will help parents, children and teachers learn what both wakes and pacifies the notorious Red Beast.
