Kiko and the Pause Button

By Ricardo Mangaroo

Big feelings can be fast-but a tiny pause can make all the difference.

Meet Kiko, a curious red panda who loves to move fast, play hard, and jump right into every moment. But when excitement and frustration start to take over, Kiko learns an important lesson: pausing before acting helps him make better choices.

With the help of a magical pause button, Kiko practices stopping, breathing, and choosing kindness-whether he's waiting his turn, playing with friends, or facing a tricky situation.

Written in gentle, rhyming language and brought to life with vibrant manga-meets-Pixar-style illustrations, Kiko and the Pause Button helps young children understand self-control, emotional regulation, and thoughtful decision-making in a warm and relatable way.
