Propeller Co-Regulation Book and Workbook
Description
Meet Fledgling,
a young flyer learning how to navigate big feelings, busy thoughts, and days that don’t always go as planned. When school feels overwhelming, people feel frustrating, or his energy runs low, flying doesn’t always come easily. With the help of trusted flight instructors,
Fledgling begins to notice what makes his flights bumpy and what helps smooth the way. He learns to read his inner instrument panel and recognize what his plane needs to keep flying. Fledgling’s story is about learning to adjust, refuel, and keep going. Even when the weather turns rough! So grab your boarding pass and join Fledgling along his journey as he discovers that he can keep flying, even on his toughest days.
Your child isn't defiant. They're depleted. When their emotional fuel tank is running on empty, even small requests can feel impossible. The Student Pilot's Flight School Manual teaches kids to recognize the signs of stress before they reach burnout—and gives them practical, age-appropriate strategies to refuel. 
This isn't a one-size-fits-all workbook. It's a compassionate, interactive guide designed specifically for children. Kids learn to track their fuel levels, identify invisible stressors, and build a personalized "tool kit" of coping strategies. And because co-regulation is key, the manual includes guidance for parents and caregivers, too. Together, you'll learn to decode your child's signals and support them in becoming the pilot of their own emotional journey. Because every child deserves to feel understood.
Target Audience: Parents, therapists, teachers, and counselors working with children ages 8–14.

"This book is a wonderful resource for understanding emotional dysregulation through the eyes of a young student. The story is engaging and relatable, helping readers connect with what it feels like to struggle with big emotions and learn how to manage them in healthy ways. One of the best parts of this book is that each chapter includes a section for parents and educators."
Christine Verolme
"I have seen many books out there addressing self-regulation, but this is one of the few I’ve seen that teaches co-regulation. Kids need our help and life experience to learn these valuable skills. I wish I would have had this resource when I was in the play therapy office!"
