Produktbeschreibung
In this fun and inclusive chapter book, join the adventures of The Wonder Crew-Cinnamon, Sweet Potato, Peaches, Cocoa, Hamburger and Peanut as they venture into each other's fantasies! When they become scared, nervous or frightened, they push their pictures on the back of their medallions and POOF! they are whisked off on many exciting adventures. Explore with the crew as they are transported to faraway places like Candylane Ave, where everything is made of candy, to landing inside a gigantic dog. Let's go! Using fantasy as a coping mechanism when faced with fear, trauma or just uncomfortable situations is validated in this story. Children typically have very vivid imaginations and a strong penchant for fantasy and make believe. Depicting fantasy as something good can help them foster a positive and healthy imagination. An entertaining illustrated book aimed at kids age 7-10 that will dispel racial stereotypes and encourage children to explore different interests and activities not typical to expectations. It will also encourage positive behavior by showing the consequences of making good vs bad decisions. Expand children's minds! This story is a great way for parents, teachers and caregivers, to foster a dialogue about bullying, diversity, coping skills, good decision making, imagination and future aspirations!

Autorenporträt
Christie Darby-Johnson is the proud mother of one son and two daughters and grandmother of two very bright and talented grandsons! She is also a former substitute teacher who now relishes her role as a school social worker for Detroit Public Schools Community District (DPSCD). Christie knows first-hand the trauma and other adversities children have and continue to experience on a daily basis, which can lead to PTSD, bi-polar disorder, depression, as well as other disorders. She takes great pride and enjoyment in knowing that she has and will continue to advocate for and provide access to viable resources for our most vulnerable populations. Although her book is fun and entertaining, Christie would like readers to know that fantasies can be helpful as a coping mechanism when dealing with and overcoming, what our children may deem as, stressful and/or traumatizing events. For many children, fantasies allow them to be in a "safe place." Christie's children and grandchildren were the muse for her book because of their oftentimes hilarious, entertaining and infinite imaginations. Christie's goal is to foster positive and healthy imaginations in all children!I want to relay the message that children at this age generally accept one another for who they are regardless of their race, ethnicity, disability and other demographics. I want to encourage all children to always respect one another's differences even if they don't embrace them!
