Russ Rides the Struggle Bus

By Melissa Findley and Misty Douthit

Russ is having a rough day. He spills orange juice, drops his backpack, upsets his mom and just being an overall mess. Frustration turns everything upside down until his teacher helps him by telling a metaphorical story about the 'Struggle Bus'-what it's like to ride it, and how to find your way off.

A gentle, hopeful story about emotions, support, and the small ways that make big feelings easier to manage.
