The Voices in my Head

The Voices in My Head has a unique approach to helping children understand the critical and compassionate voices 'inside their head'. It offers the opportunity for children (and their carers) to learn how to feel okay about themselves, even when things go wrong. Young readers see how differently the two powerfully illustrated 'voices', Crusher (critical voice) and Booster (compassionate voice) respond to everyday difficulties the children may encounter.

This debut children's book by best-selling author Kathryn Lovewell, is great fun to read, using comical expressions ("Arrgggh" I worry,"Flipperdeedear"!), rhyming text and wonderful characters and illustrations to engage its young readers, while delivering it's all-important message. The author is passionate about helping its readers (aged 6-99!) to develop self-kindness and self-compassion, which are pivotal to well-being and happiness.

The Voices in My Head guides children and parents alike to learn to pay attention to the kind voice in their head, so that they can feel safe and confident in who they are. By letting Booster be the clearest, strongest voice inside their heads, they can feel happy in their own skin.

A colouring book is also available!
