My Hidden Chimp

Written by Prof. Steven Peters, My Secret Chimp uses simple science to help children understand what is going in their own heads. Using the Chimp Model from the best-selling Chimp Paradox, My Secret Chimp is a children's guide with easy to follow explanations and simple strategies to help them understand how their chimp brain works. With 10 habits to put into practice, such as smiling, saying sorry and talking about your feelings, children can work on controlling their anxiety and emotions and understanding why they sometimes behave and feel the way they do. With fun illustrations and guides to using these habits to change their behaviour for the better, children will learn how to recognise the signs that their chimp brain is taking over and how to handle it.
