Give Your Child the Tools to Tame Their "Inner Storms."

An interactive therapeutic story designed to help children (ages 5/6 and up) understand, visualize, and manage anger and ADHD-related overwhelm.

Why a Wild Horse?

For a child with ADHD or trauma, anger doesn't feel like a choice—it feels like a powerful, galloping force that takes over. In this story, Amélie learns that her anger isn't "bad"; it’s simply a wild horse that needs a gentle, confident rider. By using this metaphor, we remove the shame from the emotion and replace it with a sense of agency and skill-building.

What’s Inside? (Features & Benefits)

  • 📖 A Relatable Story: Follow Amélie as she navigates real-world frustrations and learns to regulate her system.

  • 🧘 Integrated Somatic Tools: The book includes "Pause Points" where children can practice Breathwork alongside the character.

  • 🎨 Interactive Reflection: Beautifully illustrated pages that prompt children to draw or talk about their own "Wild Horse."

  • 💡 Parent’s Guide: A dedicated section at the end for parents on how to use the "Wild Horse" language at home.

Why This Book is Different

  • Neuro-Affirming: Specifically designed for the neurodivergent brain, focusing on regulation rather than just "behavior."

  • Multilingual: Available in English (French & Dutch versions forthcoming) to support international families.
