Say It Nicely!

By C.D. Parker

Help Your Little Dragon Find the Right Words

Does your child struggle with "Sparky Sentences" when they're frustrated? Meet Barnaby, a sapphire-blue dragon with a heart of gold but a tongue that occasionally breathes fire.

In the heart of the Whispering Woods, Barnaby learns that words are powerful-they can either warm a room like a cozy hearth or burn like a wild spark. When a bakery blunder leads to a major "Splat," Barnaby's angry words turn the vibrant forest into a dull, stony gray. With the help of Willa the Weaver, a wise and gentle spider, Barnaby discovers the Three-Step Sieve, a magical mental tool to filter his thoughts before they become words.

"Say It Nicely" is more than just a story; it's a practical guide for emotional intelligence. Through Barnaby's journey, children will learn:

The Three-Step Sieve: A simple memory tool to check if words are True, Helpful, and Kind.

The "Cool the Soup" Breath: A physical calming technique to use before reacting.

The Power of Impact: Understanding how our tone and words affect the world and people around us.

Perfect for parents, teachers, and counselors, this beautifully illustrated tale provides a concrete framework for healthy communication and self-regulation.
