Deep inside the Brainy Bunch headquarters lives Amy the Amygdala, the brain's tiny but powerful alarm system.
In Amy the Amygdala and the Overactive Alarm, children learn how the brain notices danger and helps the body react quickly. Sometimes Amy rings the alarm to keep us safe, but other times she can get a little too excited and sound the alert when everything is actually okay.
Through playful rhyme and relatable moments, young readers discover how feelings like fear, worry, and surprise come from the brain trying to protect us. They also learn that the thinking parts of the brain can help calm Amy's alarm when it rings too loudly.
Plus, every book includes bonus learning material: a Teacher and Parent Guide, a kid-friendly explainer, discussion starters, hands-on visual activities, and curated resources, giving grown-ups simple, science-backed ways to keep the learning going long after the last page.
