How to Crack Your Peanut by Allison Edwards Book Summary
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Give Kids the Tools They Need to Control Their Emotions.
Allison Edwards' How to Crack Your Peanut helps kids understand why they sometimes lose control and make bad decisions. When kids learn how the brain works, they can begin to listen to their bodies and control their emotions.
Diego doesn't understand why he always seems to lose his temper and lash out at people. He begins to feel like something is wrong with him and wonders if he is a bad kid. With the help of his counselor, Dr. B, Diego learns that the reason he acts the way he does is because of a peanut-shaped part of his brain called the amygdala.
Once he discovers how his brain works, Diego understands why his body feels out of control when he is angry or overwhelmed. Will the three tricks he learns from Dr. B help him keep his peanut calm, cool, and collected?
This gentle introduction to emotion regulation will help children realize they are not bad kids who make bad choices. They are good kids who can learn to control their emotions and make better choices, no matter the situation.

PRAISE FOR THE BOOK:
Oh my, is this book relatable for all kids, especially in these pandemic times when emotions and stress are running so high! I absolutely love everything about this book. The way it normalizes Diego's feelings and experiences, explains the brain in a kid-friendly way, and offers practical tools to cope, make it a must-have for your school counselor library. It would be great for classroom lessons and counseling sessions on self-control, the brain, and behavior.
Laura Oathout, School Counselor
The whole world could use this book right now. I think it applies to all of us and the loss of control we have been experiencing the last few years. Our emotions get the best of us sometimes, but being able to understand our brain and how it works is so helpful. I love the way the author uses everyday experiences and gives us examples of how to calm down. Emotional regulation is so important!
