Booktalk: This middle grade activity book encourages readers to navigate the landscape of their psyche by coloring, writing, doodling, drawing and completing personality quizzes. To help young readers work through their anxieties, encourage honest self-reflection, and inspire a sense of acceptance and optimism –even in times of darkness– readers are invited to complete their ‘strength mountain’, to explore their ‘wetlands of weakness’, to confront their ‘forests of fears’, to take comfort in their ‘islands of interests’, and more.
