He can squeeze, push, breathe, stretch, hum, move, ask for help and notice the clues his body is giving him. With encouragement from Miss Lyla, family and friends, Beanie learns that there is no single way to regulate.

The Power of Smart Choices! is a neurodiversity-affirming picture book for ages 3 to 8.
