This book has beautiful and vibrant illustrations and it conveys its message simply and effectively. Great for any child but especially those in need of help managing emotions in overwhelming situations.

Nice illustrations. Helpful story about a child finding mindfulness in her own quiet place wherever she may be.

I can connect to Charlotte's frustration. In a world full of distractions it's so important to find that place we can go to to find our calm. Wonderful read for adults & children!

Wherever Charlotte goes there is noise. Her house, her school, her neighborhood is a constant cacophony and she just can't think. NOOO!! she says. "I have to find a quiet place." So she searches, she finds one and she sits and calms down and listens to herself breathe. Haven't we all felt like this at one time or another? I know working in a noisy retail environment makes me crave silence so I could certainly relate to little Charlotte. With beautiful colorful illustrations by Sara Woolley this is one your child (and you) will really enjoy.

Charlotte and the Quiet Place is a beautifully illustrated book that provides and easy way to talk to young kids about mindfulness and expression. It also serves as a great reminder for adults that children get overwhelmed in the same ways that we do.

I identify with the protagonist so much it's like reading my biography.

As we teach children about emotional intelligence, and give them strategies for regulating themselves, this book is a great tool for supporting our purpose! It can be really hard for children (and adults) to find peace or calm when things around them are chaotic, but this book will help them see that by picturing calm, by deep breathing- they can create an inner calm despite what's happening around them.
