from 26 reviewsThank you for the amazing books Orlanda. Our son often talks about how breathing exercises helps calm his amygdala :)

We weren't sure if the books would 'click' with the kids (aged 9 and 6), but they love them! They are really benefiting from the knowledge and the exercises. Helping our eldest through a rough patch at school. Recommend!

My Brain is a Home is such a beautifully written book. It is so easy to read, my 3.5 year old loves it, it has beautifully illustrated metaphors explaining the different jobs the brain does which my daughter understands and can connect with well.
My daughter took it to Pre-Prep for show and share and the teacher emailed and wanted to keep it at school for the week to incorporate into the learning.
Will definitely be purchasing the books as a gift for “Educators Day” this year!

Ordered the deck after seeing how much our kids loved the books! Each night we lie in bed and each draw a card and try to remember a time when the message would have helped us. Highly recommend

We been going thru big feelings with 4 yr old the books help him learn about what he needs to do to help reset. He loved the chart showing his emotions and how to help.

All four of these books are an incredible resource for kids (and adults) so I highly recommend getting the entire bundle. Each book goes together so well, building on the content in the other books to give you a wonderful toolkit for supporting everyone in the families mental health.
All of the books are full of information and are beautifully presented.

For any age the suggestions in this book about ways to take care of ourselves are so easy to remember and do. A great resource to dive into when you need a little reminder.
The book is well written and beautifully presented.
Need the first aid kit full of tools as a t-shirt!

Reading this to my 6 year old she said "Mum this book is teaching me about my brain but in a fun way" and she is so right. There is so much useful information in here, beautifully packaged and easy to digest. Sparked a wonderful conversation.

This book is so good. My kids love it and even my youngest has started saying things like "my amygdala is barking" when he is stressed/worked up. Will be buying the others soon!

We loved the books. It has truly helped my daughters with a visual image on how to improve and understand their emotions. Thank you so much.

These books are phenomenal. They are beautifully written, with key messages explained in such a simplistic yet meaningful way for children to read and learn from. As a mum of two boys and an early childhood educator, these books have such a place in helping our little ones learn about there own brains, the importance of mental health and empowering them and supporting them to make decisions, learning about how to implement strategies to support emotional regulation and in turn mental health. Best mental health books I have come across for children. Highly recommend.

I ordered "My Brain First Aid "!!! Soooo GOOD. Thank you for creating such a wonderful resource for anyone and everyone!!

These books are a child friendly way to explore mental health and teach kids how to take care of their minds. I have two kids 7 and 4, both of them love the books. Even the 4 year old understands the guard dog (amygdala) in our brain. Awesome books and needed in this day and age.

The My Brain Books distill complex neuroscience into digestible information and practical strategies that children can apply to their everyday lives to help them to better understand how their brains function. As a neuro-performance scientist I was thoroughly impressed with how Orlanda decoded and distilled the science into concepts, vocabulary, stories and language that really resonate with children. My children have thoroughly enjoyed reading the books and are quick to alert me to when my amygdala is 'barking'.

I am a psychiatrist and and training as a child & adolecent therapist. These books are wonderfully informative, medically/scientifically sound and child/ parent accessible.
As professionals, we all wish for books like Orlanda's.
The art is engaging as well as the wording. I have had the pleasure of meeting Orlanda and can nearly hear her graciously speak via these books.
