Annie Mouse Books explore the world through the eyes of a young child.  Like all young children, Annie often misunderstands what adults are saying.  She is often troubled by confusing, complicated life circumstances around her.  

 

In our fast-paced world it is so easy to neglect to explain little things to children that adults take for granted. Often, we think we are shielding children from things they are too young to understand, so we avoid discussing them.  At the same time, we are often confused by our children’s angry, hostile behaviors! Every child sees and hears troubling things happening around them, even if they are not experiencing these things in their own homes.  As much as we would like, it is unrealistic (and unhealthy) to think that we could shield them from all bad things.  

 

Each book in the series is intended to be used as a tool to help young children develop coping skills BEFORE a crisis emerges, develop empathy for others, and guide young children through difficult situations. 

 

Discover how young children interpret adult language and situations while sharing the books and find out how Annie learns to cope with challenging life situations.
