About the Book
Meet Super Dodson and Super Dwyer. Together, they’re the Super Ds. They are here to help you navigate the ups and downs of everyday life. We all have big feelings, but it’s important to know how to manage those feelings—and embrace them. Imagine the fear of starting at a new school or the anger when playtime ends. You might feel happy at a party but disgust later over a food you don’t like. There’s the disappointment of not getting what you want but also the joy of a fun day! For each of these familiar experiences, the Super Ds provide advice on how to manage the emotions that arise. Never feel bad for having emotions. Emotions work to keep us healthy and safe. It’s wonderful to feel, but it’s also necessary to know how to react to each feeling in a kind, patient, and understanding way. That’s why the Super Ds are here to save the day!
