"Emotion Monster" Creators Holly Garner & Stephanie Miller on the SPB Show!

The Holly Garner and Stephanie Miller team return to the Sunbury Press Books Show to discuss their new series of children's books, designed to help kids navigate difficult times. Best known for the engaging books "Letters to Leo" and "More Letters to Leo," they return with the Emotional Monster series on Speckled Egg Press.

The first two of these, "Why is Frustrated so Frustrated?" and "Why is Sad so Sad?" are designed in words and pictures to help young people become aware of these emotions and how to deal with them. 

The pairing of Garner and Miller is natural, as they both work at the Grace B. Luhrs Elementary School in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. Holly Garner has been an educator for over 30 years, the principal of Luhrs, a teacher and reading specialist. Stephanie Miller has more than 25 years of experience, teaches third grade at Luhrs, and has brought her artistic skills to the team.

Another new release is Stuck! A hilarious tale of a hockey goalie stuck in his net, this tale teaches the value of teamwork.
