The Healthy Heroes(TM) and Shame's Mask (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798242897977)

Sometimes shame doesn't shout.
Sometimes it whispers.

In The Healthy Heroes(TM) and Shame's Mask, the Watchtower fills with a quiet gray mist that makes the Heroes feel smaller, unseen, and unsure of themselves. Noah feels like something is wrong with him-but he can't explain why. Lydia senses that this feeling isn't fear or sadness... it's something deeper.

As a mysterious mask appears, the Heroes learn how shame tells unkind stories-stories that say "I am bad" instead of "I made a mistake." With courage, honesty, and support from their loyal dogs Roman and Spots, the Healthy Heroes discover a powerful truth: mistakes don't define who we are.

This gentle, trauma-informed story helps children:

• Understand the difference between shame and guilt

• Learn that they are worthy-even when they mess up

• Practice self-compassion and emotional honesty

• Build resilience through connection and kindness

Written in warm, child-friendly language, The Healthy Heroes(TM) and Shame's Mask supports emotional growth, self-esteem, and healthy identity development-making it a meaningful resource for families, therapists, educators, and caregivers.

✨ Part of the Healthy Heroes(TM) Series, helping children name big feelings and discover their inner strengths-one story at a time.
