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

An interactive therapeutic story designed to help children (ages 6 and up) understand, visualize, and manage their anger.

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.
