About the Book

Rex’s Journey: Helping Children Understand and Cope with Emotions by Dr. Ambroes Pass-Turner is a heartfelt story designed to help children recognize, understand, and manage their feelings. Rex often feels confused—one moment angry, the next sad—and doesn’t quite know why emotions change so quickly. Like many kids, he just wants to play and be himself, but emotions can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Through relatable storytelling and expressive illustrations, Rex learns that it’s okay to feel a range of emotions and that coping in healthy ways can make life easier and happier. This book provides children with tools to better understand themselves while offering parents, teachers, and caregivers a resource for starting important conversations about emotional health.

Perfect for young readers navigating big feelings, Rex’s Journey encourages empathy, resilience, and self-awareness. The vibrant illustrations not only capture the ups and downs of Rex’s emotions but also gently guide children toward safe and positive coping strategies. It’s a valuable addition to any home, classroom, or counseling library, blending engaging art with life-changing lessons.
